Symplectic Transformations on Wigner Distributions and Time Frequency Signal Design.

This work considers uncertainty relations on time frequency distributions from a signal processing viewpoint. An uncertainty relation on the marginalizable time frequency distributions is given. A result from quantum mechanics is used on Wigner distributions and marginalizable time frequency distributions to investigate the change in variance of time and frequency variables from a signal processing perspective. Moreover, operations on signals which leave uncertainty relations unchanged are studied.
