Quadratic phase wave packet transform

Abstract

The quadratic phase Fourier transform has gained much popularity in recent years because of its applications in image and signal processing. However, the QPFT is inadequate for localizing the quadratic phase spectrum which is required in some applications. In this paper, the quadratic phase wave packet transform QP WPT is proposed to address this problem, based on the wave packet transform WPT and QPFT. Firstly, we propose the definition of the QP WPT and gave its relation with windowed Fourier transform WFT. Secondly, several notable inequalities and important properties of newly defined QP WPT, such as boundedness, reconstruction formula, Moyals formula, Reproducing kernel are derived. Finally, we formulate several classes of uncertainty inequalities such as Leibs uncertainty principle, logarithmic uncertainty inequality and the Heisenberg uncertainty inequality.
