What is the equation for Mexican hat wavelet defined by 'mexihat' function

19 views (last 30 days)
I am wondering what would be the equation for the Mexican hat wavelet defined by 'mexihat' function as its equation is not given in the discription. Not just this function, for some other functions also equations are not given.
I have done the following way, both are not equal and also I am unable to put [lb,ub] variables in the equation.
L=45;
alpha=2.5;
n=-(L-1)/2:(L-1)/2;
sigma=((L-1)/(2*alpha));
m=(1-(n/sigma).^2).*exp(-((n/sigma).^2)/2);
m=m.';
[m_r,x] = mexihat(-1,1,45);
m_r=m_r.';

If you open mexihat, you can see that the value is calculated as:
out2 = linspace(LB,UB,N); % wavelet support.
out1 = out2.^2;
out1 = (2/(sqrt(3)*pi^0.25)) * exp(-out1/2) .* (1-out1);
The formula is: , for .
