Motivated by the recent paper of Boggiatto–Garello (J Pseudo-Differ Oper Appl 11:93–117, 2020) where a Gabor operator is regarded as pseudodifferential operator with symbol $$p(x,\omega )$$
p
(
x
,
ω
)
periodic on both the variables, we study the continuity and invertibility, on general time frequency invariant spaces, of pseudodifferential operators with completely periodic symbol and general $$\tau $$
τ
quantization.
