Abstract. In this article, we present the abstract harmonic analysis aspects of the operator-valued continuous Gabor transform (CGT) on second countable, non-unimodular, and type I locally compact groups. We show that the operator-valued continuous Gabor transform CGT satisfies a Plancherel formula and an inversion formula. As an example, we study these results on the continuous affine group.Mathematics Subject Classification. Primary 43A30, 43A32, 43A65, 22D10.
