Reproducing pairs and the continuous nonstationary Gabor transform on LCA groups

New Uncertainty Principles for the Continuous Gabor Transform and the Continuous Wavelet Transform

Abstract. Gabor and wavelet methods are preferred to classical Fourier methods, whenever the time dependence of the analyzed signal is of the same importance as its frequency dependence. However, there exist strict limits to the maximal time-frequency resolution of these both transforms, similar to Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle in Fourier analysis. Results of this type are the subject of t...

Nonstationary Gabor Frames

To overcome the limitation induced by the fixed timefrequency resolution over the whole time-frequency plane of Gabor frames, we propose a simple extension of the Gabor theory leading to the construction of frames with timefrequency resolution evolving over time or frequency. We describe the construction of such frames and give the explicit formulation of the canonical dual frame for some condi...

Nonstationary Gabor frames - Existence and construction

Nonstationary Gabor frames were recently introduced in [2] and represent a natural generalization of classical Gabor frames by allowing for adaptivity of windows and lattice in either time or frequency. In this paper we show a general existence result for this family of frames. We also construct nonstationary Gabor frames with non-compactly supported windows from a related painless nonorthogona...

Discrete Gabor transform

The Gabor expansion, which maps the time domain signal into the joint time and frequency domain, has long been recognized as a very useful tool in signal processing. Its applications, however, were limited due to the difficulties associated with selecting the Gabor coefficients. Because timeshifted and frequency-modulated elementary functions in general do not constitute an orthogonal basis, th...
