Solar Radiation Data Analysis by using Daubechies Wavelets

The aim of this paper is to study the possibility of using wavelet transform method for solar radiation data compression. The Daubechies wavelets were utilized for analyzing the transient nature of solar radiation. The measured solar radiation was subjected to the wavelets techniques for smoothing and filtering of data that was decomposed up to level 5. The findings from this study show that the Daubechies wavelets method can be used for filtering and smoothing of solar radiation. The results presented indicate that Daubechies 10 (D10) wavelet approach is suitable for data filtering and smoothing of the solar radiation data.
