Hello Anex,
You can find the impulse response of a Hilbert transform in this
paper. It gives the theoretical response. It is essentially 1/t.

But you can design via a Parks-McClellan algorithm practical varsions
of Hilbert transforms.
But since you say you are doing edge detection, you may find this
article helpful.

hi there, i was going through a paper on using hilbert transform for edge
detection in image processing.It said over there that the hilbert transform
works better than differentiation for edge detection as it has longer
impulse response which helps reduce the effect of noise.I am new to the
subject and dont understand what exactly does a longer impulse response
mean.??.and how does the impulse response of a system determine its
susceptibility to noise..??..and ya what is the impulse response of the
hilbert transform..i think its [-j.sgn(f)].correct me if i am wrong but
does a longer impulse response mean that it covers a larger band of
frequency. thanks in advance
