Abstract

Fractional Fourier transform (FRFT) plays an important role in many fields of optics and signal processing. This paper considers the problem of real-time measurement of the spectrum of a signal in the FRFT domain. In this paper, we propose two approaches for real-time measurement of the FRFT of a signal based on modulation and bandpass filtering systems. The relation is established between the linear frequency modulation (LFM or chirp) spectrum and the FRFT of its envelope. In addition, two applications for spectrum measurement are presented in the FRFT domain. The LFM signal can be bandlimited in the Fourier transform (FT) domain through spectrum measurement associated with bandpass filtering method. The results can also be useful in the problems related to swept-frequency filter for measurement in the FRFT domain.
