The relationship between finite discrete Zak transform and finite Gabo
r expansion are well discussed in this paper. In this paper, we presen
t two DFT-based algorithms for computing Gabor coefficients. One is ba
sed upon the time-split Zak transform, the other is based upon the fre
quency-split Zak transform. These two methods are lime and frequency d
ual pairs. With the help of Zak transform, the closed-form solutions f
or analysis basis can also be derived while the oversampling ratio is
an integer. Moreover, we extend the relationship between finite discre
te Zak transform and Gabor expansion to the 2-D case and compute 2-D G
abor expansion coefficients through 2-D discrete Zak transform and 4-D
DFT. Four methods can be applied in the 2-D case. They are time-time-
split, time-frequency-split, frequency-time-split and frequency-freque
ncy-split.
