This paper presents a novel approach to the Fourier analysis of multichannel time series. Orthogonal matrix functions are introduced and are used in the definition of multichannel Fourier series of continuous-time periodic multichannel functions. Orthogonal transforms are proposed for discrete-time multichannel signals as well. It is proven that the orthogonal matrix functions are related to unitary transforms (e.g., discrete Hartley transform (DHT), Walsh-Hadamard transform), which are used for single-channel signal transformations. The discrete-time one-dimensional multichannel transforms proposed in this paper are related to two-dimensional single-channel transforms, notably to the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) and to the DHT. Therefore, fast algorithms for their computation can be easily constructed. Simulations on the use of discrete multichannel transforms on color image compression have also been performed
