Lp-type Heisenberg-Pauli-Weyl uncertainty principles for fractional Fourier transform

Chen, Xuan, Dang, Pei, Mai, Weixiong

Abstract

In this paper we prove some Lp-type Heisenberg-Pauli-Weyl uncertainty principles for complex signals with respect to fractional Fourier transform, 1≤p≤2. We also discuss the effect of shifting and scaling on the uncertainty principles. Moreover, some numerical simulations are given to demonstrate our results.

In this paper, we prove a stronger type of Heisenberg–Pauli–Weyl uncertainty principle for ambiguity function. An example is used to demonstrate the obtained result, and related uncertainty principles for short-time Fourier transform and Wigner distribution are given, respectively. In addition, we introduce the so-called K-ambiguity function, and obtain the related Heisenberg–Pauli–Weyl uncertainty principle.

A Generalized Uncertainty Principle Involving Fractional Fourier Transform

Marni Rezki, Mawardi Bahri, Muhammad Zakir

It is well known that the fractional Fourier transform (FrFT) is a non-trivial generalization of the classical Fourier transform. This transform has been extensively utilized in signal analysis and image processing. The uncertainty principle is one of the fundamental results related to the FrFT. In the present paper, we first propose the different method in proving a variant of Heisenberg uncertainty principles associated with the FrFT. This method combines the Heisenberg-type uncertainty principle pertaining to the FrFT and the additive property of the FrFT. We then provide an alternative proof of the logarithmic inequality for the FRFT and find that this result differs slightly that in the literature. Finally, we explicitly expand the variant of Heisenberg uncertainty principle to a more general case.

Uncertainty principle for Weyl transform and Fourier–Wigner transform

We prove an uncertainty type principle for finite linear combinations of Fourier-Wigner transforms.This is equivalent to proving a finite rank theorem for the Weyl transform.

Uncertainty principles invariant under the fractional Fourier transform

David Mustard

Abstract Uncertainty principles like Heisenberg's assert an inequality obeyed by some measure of joint uncertainty associated with a function and its Fourier transform. The more groups under which that measure is invariant, the more that measure represents an intrinsic property of the underlying object represented by the given function. The Fourier transform is imbedded in a continuous group of operators, the fractional Fourier transforms, but the Heisenberg measure of overall spread turns out not to be invariant under that group. A new family is developed of measures that are invariant under the group of fractional Fourier transforms and that obey associated uncertainty principles. The first member corresponds to Heisenberg's measure but is generally smaller than his although equal to it in special cases.

N -dimensional Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle for fractional Fourier transform

Zhichao Zhang

A sharper uncertainty inequality which exhibits a lower bound larger than that in the classical N -dimensional Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle is obtained, and extended from N -dimensional Fourier transform domain to two N -dimensional fractional Fourier transform domains. The conditions that reach the equality relation of the uncertainty inequalities are deduced. Example and simulation are performed to illustrate that the newly derived uncertainty principles are truly sharper than the existing ones in the literature. The new proposals’ applications in time-frequency analysis and optical system analysis are also given.
