Abstract: For a unit-norm frame $F={f_i}_{i=1}^k$ in $R^n$, a scaling is a vector $c=(c(1),dots,c(k))in{R}_{geq0}^k$ such that ${sqrtc(i)f_i}_{i=1}^k$ is a Parseval frame in $R^n$. If such a scaling exists, $F$ is said to be scalable. A scaling $c$ is a minimal scaling if $f_i:c(i)>0$ has no proper scalable subframe. It is known that the set of all scalings of $F$ is a convex polytope whose vertices correspond to minimal scalings. In this paper, we provide an estimation of the number of minimal scalings of a scalable frame and a characterization of when minimal scalings are affinely dependent. Using this characterization, we can conclude that all strict scalings $c=(c(1),dots,c(k))in{R}_{>0}^k$ of $F$ have the same structural property. We also present the uniqueness of orthogonal partitioning property of any set of minimal scalings, which provides all possible tight subframes of a given scaled frame.
