Tomographic and entropic analysis of modulated signals

Abstract

We study an application of the quantum tomography framework for the time-frequency analysis of modulated signals. In particular, we calculate optical tomographic representations and Wigner-Ville distributions for signals with amplitude and frequency modulations. We also consider time-frequency entropic relations for modulated signals, which are naturally associated with the Fourier analysis. A numerical toolbox for calculating optical time-frequency tomograms based on pseudo Wigner-Ville distributions for modulated signals is provided.
