Nonuniform sampling theorems for random signals in the linear canonical transform domain

Abstract

ABSTRACTNonuniform sampling can be encountered in various practical processes because of random events or poor timebase. The analysis and applications of the nonuniform sampling for deterministic signals related to the linear canonical transform (LCT) have been well considered and researched, but up to now no papers have been published regarding the various nonuniform sampling theorems for random signals related to the LCT. The aim of this article is to explore the nonuniform sampling and reconstruction of random signals associated with the LCT. First, some special nonuniform sampling models are briefly introduced. Second, based on these models, some reconstruction theorems for random signals from various nonuniform samples associated with the LCT have been derived. Finally, the simulation results are made to prove the accuracy of the sampling theorems. In addition, the latent real practices of the nonuniform sampling for random signals have been also discussed.
