Secondary electrons at ground level of simulated extensive air showers have been analyzed using a wavelet transform based technique, in order to investigate the variation of fractal dimensions of the lateral distribution of the electrons with shower energy and primary particle mass number. The fractal dimension is shown to increase with shower energy and seems to saturate to constant values near the core of the shower at higher energies. Using the fractal dimensi parameter separation technique is then applied to the data. It has been shown that the technique has good accuracy at high energy, provided the energy of the shower is obtained independently.
