On the base of the fractional Fourier transform(FRT) which is known as a generalized form of the conventional Fourier transform, the fractional correlation has been implemented. Shift-variance property of the fraction correlation has been evaluated and compared with the shift-invariance of the conventional correlation. The fractional correlation operation has been implemented by using a planar optics configuration which integrates all of the optical components on a single glass substrate. A good agreement between the experimental and calculated results has been obtained.
