Nonuniform fast Fourier transforms with nonequispaced spatial and frequency data and fast sinc transforms

Abstract

In this paper, we study the nonuniform fast Fourier transform with nonequispaced spatial and frequency data (NNFFT) and the fast sinc transform as its application. The computation of NNFFT is mainly based on the nonuniform fast Fourier transform with nonequispaced spatial nodes and equispaced frequencies (NFFT). The NNFFT employs two compactly supported, continuous window functions. For fixed nonharmonic bandwidth, we show that the error of the NNFFT with two sinh -type window functions has an exponential decay with respect to the truncation parameters of the used window functions. As an important application of the NNFFT, we present the fast sinc transform. The error of the fast sinc transform is estimated as well.
