How to calculate the Spatial frequency in Gabor filter?

Viewed 733

This question describe the gabor filter family and its application pretty well. Though, there is nothing described about the wavelength (spatial frequency) of the filter. The creation of gabor wavelets are done in the following for loop:

for v = 0 : 4
    for u = 1 : 8
        GW = GaborWavelet ( R, C, Kmax, f, u, v, Delt2 ); % Create the Gabor wavelets
          figure( 2 );
         subplot( 5, 8, v * 8 + u ),imshow ( real( GW ) ,[]); % Show the real part of Gabor wavelets

         GW_ALL( v*8+u, :) = GW(:);

    end

    figure ( 3 );
     subplot( 1, 5, v + 1 ),imshow ( abs( GW ),[]); % Show the magnitude of Gabor wavelets

end

I know that the second loop variable is the orientation with pi/8 intervals. Though, I don't know how the first loop variable is linked with the spatial frequency (wavelength) in this code and its function [pixels/cycle]. Can anyone help?
