Abstract
In this paper, a set of canonical collective and relative variables for a classical relativistic massless field are defined and discussed. The discussion is based on a harmonic analysis on the light-cone in momentum space. It is shown how to avoid a set of consistency constraints which are necessary in the massive case. As a result a canonical separation of the angular momentum in collective and relative parts and a canonical realization of an extended BMS algebra are obtained.
