Abstract: We perform Wigner analysis of linear operators. Namely, the standard time-frequency representation emph{Short-time Fourier Transform} (STFT) is replaced by the mathcalA-emph{Wigner distribution} defined by , where mathcalA is a 4dimes4d symplectic matrix and mu(mathcalA) is an associate metaplectic operator. Basic examples are given by the so-called au-Wigner distributions. Such representations provide a new characterization for modulation spaces when auin(0,1). Furthermore, they can be efficiently employed in the study of the off-diagonal decay for pseudodifferential operators with symbols in the Sj"ostrand class (in particular, in the H"{o}rmander class S0,00). The novelty relies on defining time-frequency representations via metaplectic operators, developing a conceptual framework and paving the way for a new understanding of quantization procedures. We deduce micro-local properties for pseudodifferential operators in terms of the Wigner wave front set. Finally, we compare the Wigner with the global H"{o}rmander wave front set and identify the possible presence of a ghost region in the Wigner wave front. par In the second part of the paper applications to Fourier integral operators and Schr"{o}dinger equations will be given.
