| t_wv_bitplane * | plane |
| (Temporary) Array of bitplanes (0 ^= highest bitplane!) | |
| int | offset |
| Where our coefficients start in t_wv_channel.reordered_channel. | |
| int | size |
| Number of relevant wavelet coefficients in this block. | |
| unsigned char | num_planes |
| Number of bit-planes needed to encode the block. | |
In this context, a block refers to the detail coefficients of a particular wavelet decomposition level. For example, a 512x512 image is first decomposed into a 256x256 average (this is then again decomposed recursively) and 3 256x256 detail coefficients. These 3 256x256 detail coefficients make up a so-called block.
