Abstract

In this paper we use the general two-sided quaternion Fourier transform (QFT) in order to derive Wiener–Khinchine theorems for the cross-correlation and for the auto-correlation of quaternion signals. Furthermore, we show how to derive a new four term spectral representation for the convolution of quaternion signals.
