Abstract
The consideration of translational motion in the frequency domain has rendered valuable service in many applications, such as television signal analysis, motion estimation, image registration, and visual perception studies. This work presents rotational motion in the frequency domain, developing theoretical results parallel to those relative to translations. The analysis can support the extension of frequency —domain—based approaches to specific applications concerning rotations, an operation successfully carried out by recent image registration works.
