In this paper, we develop a novel energy-preserving wavelet collocation method for solving general multi-symplectic formulations of Hamiltonian PDEs. Based on the autocorrelation functions of Daubechies compactly supported scaling functions, the wavelet collocation method is conducted for spatial discretization. The obtained semi-discrete system is shown to be a finite-dimensional Hamiltonian system, which has an energy conservation law. Then, the average vector field method is used for time integration, which leads to an energy-preserving method for multi-symplectic Hamiltonian PDEs. The proposed method is illustrated by the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and the Camassa-Holm equation. Since differentiation matrix obtained by the wavelet collocation method is a cyclic matrix, we can apply Fast Fourier transform to solve equations in numerical calculation. Numerical experiments show the high accuracy, effectiveness and conservation properties of the proposed method.
