In this article, we define Weyl transform on second countable type -I locally compact group G, and as an operator on L 2 (G), we prove that the Weyl transform is compact when the symbol lies in L p (G × Ĝ) with 1 ≤ p ≤ 2. Further, for the Euclidean motion group and Heisenberg motion group, we prove that the Weyl transform can not be extended as a bounded operator for the symbol belongs to L p (G × Ĝ) with 2 < p < ∞. To carry out this, we construct positive, square integrable and compactly supported function, on the respective groups, such that L p ′ norm of its Fourier transform is infinite, where p ′ is the conjugate index of p.
