Fractional Riesz-Hilbert transforms and fractional monogenic signals
arXiv:1507.05035
Abstract
The fractional Hilbert transforms plays an important role in optics and signal processing. In particular the analytic signal proposed by Gabor has as a key component the Hilbert transform. The higher dimensional Hilbert transform is the Riesz-Hilbert transform which was used by Felsberg and Sommer to construct the monogenic signal. We will construct fractional and quaternionic fractional Riesz-Hilbert transforms based on a eigenvalue decomposition. We will prove properties of these transformations such as shift and scale invariance, orthogonality and the semigroup property. Based on the fractional/quaternionic fractional Riesz-Hilbert transform we construct (quaternionic) fractional monogenic signals. These signals are rotated and modulated monogenic signals.
