I think there are two possibilities of soluting this problem:
First, you can oversample your signal by zero padding in the frequency
domain to get higher resolution in the time domain. If you take the
oversampling factor big enough, you can sample your data down to the
grid.
But I think the faster way is to interpolate the irregular data down to
equidistant twodimensional axis - simultaneously, you smooth your data
because of the interpolating.
