On the time-frequency representation of operators and generalized Gabor multiplier approximations
نویسندگان
چکیده
The problem of representation and approximation of linear operators by means of modification in the time-frequency domain is considered. Before turning to the discrete and sub-sampled case, a complete characterization of linear operators by means of a twisted convolution in the continuous time-frequency domain is suggested. Subsequently, existing results on approximation by time-frequency multipliers are reviewed. To overcome the limitations imposed by these multipliers, two more general constructions are proposed, termed multiple Gabor multipliers and Twisted Spline type functions. Conditions ensuring the existence of optimal multiple Gabor multipliers are given. As the constructions suggested in this paper are mainly based on the Weyl-Heisenberg group, twisted convolution plays a central role in the results described in this paper.

Representation of Operators in the Time-frequency Domain and Generalized Gabor Multipliers
Abstract. Starting from a general operator representation in the time-frequency domain, this paper addresses the problem of approximating linear operators by operators that are diagonal or band-diagonal with respect to Gabor frames. A characterization of operators that can be realized as Gabor multipliers is given and necessary conditions for the existence of (Hilbert-Schmidt) optimal Gabor mul...

متن کاملRepresentation of operators by sampling in the time-frequency domain
Gabor multipliers are well-suited for the approximation of certain time-variant systems. However, this class of systems is rather restricted. To overcome this restriction, multiple Gabor multipliers allowing for more than one synthesis windows are introduced. The influence of the choice of the various parameters involved on approximation quality is studied for both classical and multiple Gabor ...

In recent work, the construction of non-uniform generalized Gabor frames for the time-frequency analysis of signals has been introduced. In particular, while preserving perfect reconstruction, these frames allow for tilings of the time-frequency plane with arbitrary allocation of partially overlapping frequency bands or time intervals. In a recent paper, the author demonstrated that the constru...
متن کاملRepresentation of linear operators by Gabor multipliers
We consider a continuous version of Gabor multipliers: operators consisting of a short-time Fourier transform, followed by multiplication by a distribution on phase space (called the Gabor symbol), followed by an inverse short-time Fourier transform, allowing different localizing windows for the forward and inverse transforms. For a given pair of forward and inverse windows, which linear operat...
