Linear canonical wavelet transform and the associated uncertainty principles

Abstract: We define a novel time-frequency analyzing tool, namely linear canonical wavelet transform (LCWT) and study some of its important properties like inner product relation, reconstruction formula and also characterize its range. We obtain Donoho-Stark's and Lieb's uncertainty principle for the LCWT and give a lower bound for the measure of its essential support. We also give Shapiro's mean dispersion theorem for the proposed LCWT.
