Fast algorithms for a wide class of non–separable n–dimensional (nD) discrete unitary K– transforms (DKT) are introduced. They need less 1D DKTs than in the case of the classical radix–2 FFT–type approach. The method utilizes a decomposition of the nDK–transform into the product of a new nD discrete Radon transform and of a set of parallel/independ 1D K–transforms. If the nD K–transform has a s...

We propose and consolidate a definition of the discrete fractional Fourier transform that generalizes the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) in the same sense that the continuous fractional Fourier transform generalizes the continuous ordinary Fourier transform. This definition is based on a particular set of eigenvectors of the DFT matrix, which constitutes the discrete counterpart of the set of...

The discrete cosine transform (DCT) is a Fourier-related transform similar to the discrete Fourier transform (DFT), but using only real numbers. It is equivalent to a DFT of roughly twice the length, operating on real data with even symmetry (since the Fourier transform of a real and even function is real and even), where in some variants the input and/or output data are shifted by half a sampl...

Fourier transforms, integer and fractional, are ubiquitous mathematical tools in basic and applied science. Certainly, since the ordinary Fourier transform is merely a particular case of a continuous set of fractional Fourier domains, every property and application of the ordinary Fourier transform becomes a special case of the fractional Fourier transform. Despite the great practical importanc...

Abstract: In paper two types of the discrete cosine (and sine) transforms (DCT/DST) are analyzed. These transforms are useful for many applications. It is shown that if an operator, connected with the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT), is referred to an appropriate basis it takes block-diagonal form. These blocks coincide with DCT-2/DST-2 for even dimensions of the signals’ space and with DCT6/D...

Fractional Fourier Transform, which is a generalization of the classical Fourier Transform, is a powerful tool for the analysis of transient signals. The discrete Fractional Fourier Transform Hamiltonians have been proposed in the past with varying degrees of correlation between their eigenvectors and Hermite Gaussian functions. In this paper, we propose a new Hamiltonian for the discrete Fract...

In this paper, the k-trigonometric functions over the Galois Field GF(q) are introduced and their main properties derived. This leads to the definition of the cask(.) function over GF(q), which in turn leads to a finite field Hartley Transform . The main properties of this new discrete transform are presented and areas for possible applications are mentioned.

The terms Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) and Inverse Fast Fourier Transform (IFFT) are used to denote efficient and fast algorithms to compute the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) and the Inverse Discrete Fourier Transform (IDFT) respectively. The FFT/IFFT is widely used in many digital signal processing applications and the efficient implementation of the FFT/IFFT is a topic of continuous research.

We propose a discrete fractional random transform based on a generalization of the discrete fractional Fourier transform with an intrinsic randomness. Such discrete fractional random transform inheres excellent mathematical properties of the fractional Fourier transform along with some fantastic features of its own. As a primary application, the discrete fractional random transform has been use...
