MMW imaging systems can Abstract—Existing three-dimensional (3-D) compressive be classified into two types: passive imaging systems and active sensing-based millimeter-wave (MMW) imaging methods require imaging systems. Both types have their own offerings and a large-scale storage of the sensing matrix and immense challenges. This paper focuses on active MMW imaging computations owing to the high dimension matrix-vector model techniques, which typically implement large scale antenna employed in the optimization. To overcome this shortcoming, we arrays to illuminate the whole human body, leading to high propose an efficient compressive sensing (CS) method based on a holographic algorithm for near-field 3-D MMW imaging.

CS has been In so doing, the problem induced by the large-scale sensing matrix extensively studied in radar imaging [15]-[19], microwave is avoided. With no interpolations required, both the imaging [20]-[23], array synthesis and diagnosis [24], [25], and computational speed and the image quality can be improved. direction-of-arrival estimation [26]-[28]. Simulation and experimental results are provided to demonstrate CS methods are typically based on the matrix-vector model, the performance of the proposed method in comparison with which employs a large-scale sensing matrix in 3-D MMW those of the K based CS and the traditional Fourier-based imaging for personnel inspection and security applications. imaging techniques. Such model was incorporated in [29] for a 3-D compressive phased array imaging.

INTRODUCTION and permitted its realization on an ordinary personal computer. ILLIMETER-WAVE (MMW) has attractive In [32], the 3-D K algorithm, referred to as range migration characteristics compared with waves in the microwave M algorithm, was used in combination with the CS principle for band or lower frequency bands. These include higher carrier image reconstruction. Nevertheless, this algorithm includes the frequency and wider usable frequency band that enables higher forward and inverse Stolt interpolations that entail require high target cross-range and down-range resolutions. Another computations and can lead to reduced image fidelity. An important feature of MMW is the design of small and light interpolation-free SAR imaging algorithm, named range systems and equipment. Accordingly, it is beneficial to adopt stacking, was proposed in [33] and extended to 3-D imaging in MMW for short-range broadband communications [1], [2], [34].

Optical waves oscillate too fast for detectors to measure anything but time{averaged intensities. This is unfortunate since the phase can reveal important information about the object. When the light is partially coherent, a complete description of the phase requires knowledge about the statistical correlations for each pair of points in space. Recovery of the correlation function is a much more challenging problem since the number of pairs grows much more rapidly than the number of points. In this thesis, quantitative phase imaging techniques that works for partially co- herent illuminations are investigated. In order to recover the phase information with few measurements, the sparsity in each underly problem and efficient inversion meth- ods are explored under the framework of compressed sensing. In each phase retrieval technique under study, diffraction during spatial propagation is exploited as an ef- fective and convenient mechanism to uniformly distribute the information about the unknown signal into the measurement space.

  • Robust Compressed Sensing Using Generative Models
    Robust Compressed Sensing using Generative Models Ajil Jalal ∗ Liu Liu ECE, UT Austin ECE, UT Austin [email protected] [email protected] Alexandros G. Dimakis Constantine Caramanis ECE, UT Austin ECE, UT Austin [email protected] [email protected] Abstract The goal of compressed sensing is to estimate a high dimensional vector from an underdetermined system of noisy linear equations. In analogy to classical compressed sensing, here we assume a generative model as a prior, that is, we assume the vector is represented by a deep generative model G : Rk ! Rn. Classical recovery approaches such as empirical risk minimization (ERM) are guaranteed to succeed when the measurement matrix is sub-Gaussian. However, when the measurement matrix and measurements are heavy-tailed or have outliers, recovery may fail dramatically. In this paper we propose an algorithm inspired by the Median-of-Means (MOM). Our algorithm guarantees recovery for heavy-tailed data, even in the presence of outliers. Theoretically, our results show our novel MOM-based algorithm enjoys the same sample complexity guarantees as ERM under sub-Gaussian assumptions. Our experiments validate both aspects of our claims: other algorithms are indeed fragile and fail under heavy-tailed and/or corrupted data, while our approach exhibits the predicted robustness. 1 Introduction Compressive or compressed sensing is the problem of reconstructing an unknown vector x∗ 2 Rn after observing m < n linear measurements of its entries, possibly with added noise: y = Ax∗ + η; where A 2 Rm×n is called the measurement matrix and η 2 Rm is noise. Even without noise, this is an underdetermined system of linear equations, so recovery is impossible without a structural assumption on the unknown vector x∗.

  • Compressed Sensing for Wireless Communications
    Compressed Sensing for Wireless Communications : Useful Tips and Tricks ♭ ♮ ♮ Jun Won Choi∗, Byonghyo Shim , Yacong Ding , Bhaskar Rao , Dong In Kim† ∗Hanyang University, Seoul, Korea ♭Seoul National University, Seoul, Korea ♮University of California at San Diego, CA, USA †Sungkyunkwan University, Suwon, Korea Abstract As a paradigm to recover the sparse signal from a small set of linear measurements, compressed sensing (CS) has stimulated a great deal of interest in recent years. In order to apply the CS techniques to wireless communication systems, there are a number of things to know and also several issues to be considered. However, it is not easy to come up with simple and easy answers to the issues raised while carrying out research on CS. The main purpose of this paper is to provide essential knowledge and useful tips that wireless communication researchers need to know when designing CS-based wireless systems. First, we present an overview of the CS technique, including basic setup, sparse recovery algorithm, and performance guarantee. Then, we describe three distinct subproblems of CS, viz., sparse estimation, support identification, and sparse detection, with various wireless communication applications. We also address main issues encountered in the design of CS-based wireless communication systems. These include potentials and limitations of CS techniques, useful tips that one should be aware of, subtle arXiv:1511.08746v3 [cs.IT] 20 Dec 2016 points that one should pay attention to, and some prior knowledge to achieve better performance. Our hope is that this article will be a useful guide for wireless communication researchers and even non- experts to grasp the gist of CS techniques.
