Abstract

The new fractional Fourier transform, proposed by Shih [Optics Comm. 118 (1995) 495], is shown to differ from the conventional fractional Fourier transform by its four periodic eigenvalues with respect to the order of Hermite-Gaussian functions. Simulations demonstrate that the Hermite-Gaussian superposition algorithm is still valid for this new transform. We also propose a general fractionalization procedure which includes these two definitions as two limits.
