The authors introduce a directionally oriented 2-D filter bank with the property that the individual channels may be critically sampled without loss of information. The passband regions of the component filters are wedge-shaped and thus provide directional information. It is shown that these filter bank outputs may be maximally decimated to achieve a minimum sample representation in a way that permits the original signal to be exactly reconstructed. The authors discuss the theory for directional decomposition and reconstruction. In addition, implementation issues are addressed where realizations based on both recursive and nonrecursive filters are considered.>
