Abstract

The definition of the Fractional Fourier Transform (FRFT) is described. Several discrete FRFT methods developed previously are reviewed briefly. A novel discretization method for FRFT is presented in this paper. It has some advantages such as easily understood and implemented compared with the previous DFRFT methods. Especially, it need small computation amount because of only a diagonal matrix should be recomputed when the rotational angle is changed. In addition, it need not consider the match between eigenvalues and eigenvectors. And it doesn't need to orthogonalize the DFT Hermite eigenvectors, either. A few simulation results for some typical signals are provided to verify the correctness of the proposed method.
