	%X The wavelet transform is one of the most important
method used in signal processing. In this study, we have introduced
frequency-energy characteristics of local earthquakes using discrete
wavelet transform. Frequency-energy characteristic was analyzed
depend on difference between P and S wave arrival time and noise
within records. We have found that local earthquakes have similar
characteristics. If frequency-energy characteristics can be found
accurately, this gives us a hint to calculate P and S wave arrival time.
It can be seen that wavelet transform provides successful
approximation for this. In this study, 100 earthquakes with 500
records were analyzed approximately.
