Digital watermarking for still image based on discrete fractional fourier transform

Presents a digital watermarking technique based on discrete fractional Fourier transform (DFRFT), discusses the transformation of the original image by DFRFT, and the modification of DFRFT coefficients of the original image by the information of watermark, and concludes from experimental results that the proposed technique is robust to lossy compression attack.

Peak-to-Average Power Ratio Performance Analysis for Orthogonal Chirp Division Multiplexing Multicarrier Systems Based on Discrete Fractional Cosine Transform

In doubly selective fading channels, the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) multicarrier system may fail. Chirp like basis (fractional Fourier transform-fractional cosine transform) may be used instead of complex exponential basis in this case to improve the system performance. However, in multicarrier transmission, the high peak to average power ratio (PAPR) of the transmitted signal is one of the difficult problems that face both the chirp and the exponential basis. In this paper, an evaluation for the PAPR performance of a multicarrier system based on the fractional cosine transform (FrCT) is introduced and then compared with DFrFT and FFT. Moreover, applying the SLAM technique over these systems is provided to understand the behaviour of these systems when applying SLAM. Simulations verify that this system obtains a better PAPR performance. Moreover, further PAPR reduction can be gained using the well-known PAPR reduction methods. Moreover, applying SLAM technique improves the performance of (dB) by 4 dB to 5 dB and all systems become as competitive to each other when SLAM is applied. Finally, BER performance comparison among OFDM, Discrete Cosine Transform MCM (DCT- MCM), Discrete Hartley Transform MCM (DHT-MCM), DFrFT-OCDM and DFrCT- OCDM MCM systems was done by means of simulation over 100,000 multicarrier blocks for each one and showed that our proposed scenario gave the best performance.

Improved Speech Denoising Algorithm Based on Discrete Fractional Fourier Transform

The speech signal and noise signal are the typical non-stationary signals,however the speech signa is short-stationary synchronously.Presently,the denoising methods are always executed in frequency domain due to the short-time stationarity of the speech signal.In this article,an improved speech denoising algorithm based on discrete fractional Fourier transform（DFRFT）is pre sented.This algorithm contains linear optimal filtering and median filtering.The simulation shows that it can easily eliminate the noise compared to Wiener filtering improve the signal to noise ratio（SNR）,and enhance the original speech signal.

Research progress on discretization of fractional Fourier transform

As the fractional Fourier transform has attracted a considerable amount of attention in the area of optics and signal processing, the discretization of the fractional Fourier transform becomes vital for the application of the fractional Fourier transform. Since the discretization of the fractional Fourier transform cannot be obtained by directly sampling in time domain and the fractional Fourier domain, the discretization of the fractional Fourier transform has been investigated recently. A summary of discretizations of the fractional Fourier transform developed in the last nearly two decades is presented in this paper. The discretizations include sampling in the fractional Fourier domain, discrete-time fractional Fourier transform, fractional Fourier series, discrete fractional Fourier transform （including 3 main types： linear combination-type; sampling-type; and eigen decomposition-type）, and other discrete fractional signal transform. It is hoped to offer a doorstep for the readers who are interested in the fractional Fourier transform.
