We present examples of a new type of wavelet basis functions that are orthogonal across shifts but not across scales. The analysis functions are piecewise linear while the synthesis functions are polynomial splines of degree n (odd). The approximation power of these representations is essentially as good as that of the corresponding Battle-Lemarié orthogonal wavelet transform, with the difference that the present wavelet synthesis filters have a much faster decay. This last property, together with the fact that these transformations are almost orthogonal, may be useful for image coding applications.
