To remove the imaginary signal a hermitian symmetry is placed with the ifft as shown below
Xsym = ifft(Y,'symmetric')
My question is how to remove it in fft?

Hi abdullah,
do you mean removing it if all you have is Xsym? That would not be possible because of loss of information when using the 'symmetric" optiion.

Yes, this is true, but should be used in the transmission system, but in the reception must remove its effect

This is equivalent to forcing conjugate symmetry in fft(),
Yfft = ifft(conj(Y),'symmetric')*numel(Y);
If Y is real, you can of course omit the conj.

Works fine for me:
>> Y=ifftshift([1.1 2.1 3 2 1]) %non-symmetric input
Y =
3.0000 2.0000 1.0000 1.1000 2.1000
>> Ysym=round(Y) %symmetric input
Ysym =
3 2 1 1 2
>> fft(Ysym) %ideal result
ans =
9.0000 2.6180 0.3820 0.3820 2.6180
>> Yfft = ifft(conj(Y),'symmetric')*numel(Y) %force symmetry
Yfft =
9.0000 2.6180 0.3820 0.3820 2.6180
