Abstract

The quaternion linear canonical transform (QLCT), as a generalized form of the quaternion Fourier transform, is a powerful analyzing tool in image and signal processing. In this paper, we propose five different forms of uncertainty principles for the two-sided QLCT, including logarithmic uncertainty principle, Heisenberg-type uncertainty principle, local uncertainty principle, Benedicks–Amrein–Berthier uncertainty principle and entropic uncertainty principle. These consequences actually describe the quantitative relationships of a quaternion-valued signal in arbitrary two different QLCT domains, and they have great applications in signal recovery and physical quantum.
