Abstract: A generalized Weyl quantization formalism for a particle on the circle investigated in cite{1} is developed. A Wigner function for the state $hatvarrho$ and the kernel $mathcalK$ for a particle on the circle is defined and its properties are analyzed. Then it is shown how this Wigner function can be easily modified to give the number-phase Wigner function in quantum optics. Some examples of such number-phase Wigner function are considered.
