Resolving Multi-path Interference in Time-of-Flight Imaging via Modulation Frequency Diversity and Sparse Regularization
Time-of-flight (ToF) cameras calculate depth maps by reconstructing phase
shifts of amplitude-modulated signals. For broad illumination or transparent
objects, reflections from multiple scene points can illuminate a given pixel,
giving rise to an erroneous depth map. We report here a sparsity regularized
solution that separates K-interfering components using multiple modulation
frequency measurements. The method maps ToF imaging to the general framework of
spectral estimation theory and has applications in improving depth profiles and
exploiting multiple scattering.Comment: 11 Pages, 4 figures, appeared with minor changes in Optics Letter
Harnessing machine learning for fiber-induced nonlinearity mitigation in long-haul coherent optical OFDM
© 2018 by the authors. Licensee MDPI, Basel, Switzerland. This article is an open access article distributed under the terms and conditions of the Creative Commons Attribution (CC BY) license (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/).Coherent optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (CO-OFDM) has attracted a lot of interest in optical fiber communications due to its simplified digital signal processing (DSP) units, high spectral-efficiency, flexibility, and tolerance to linear impairments. However, CO-OFDM’s high peak-to-average power ratio imposes high vulnerability to fiber-induced non-linearities. DSP-based machine learning has been considered as a promising approach for fiber non-linearity compensation without sacrificing computational complexity. In this paper, we review the existing machine learning approaches for CO-OFDM in a common framework and review the progress in this area with a focus on practical aspects and comparison with benchmark DSP solutions.Peer reviewe
Convolutional Radio Modulation Recognition Networks
We study the adaptation of convolutional neural networks to the complex
temporal radio signal domain. We compare the efficacy of radio modulation
classification using naively learned features against using expert features
which are widely used in the field today and we show significant performance
improvements. We show that blind temporal learning on large and densely encoded
time series using deep convolutional neural networks is viable and a strong
candidate approach for this task especially at low signal to noise ratio
