Model-Based Calibration of Filter Imperfections in the Random Demodulator for Compressive Sensing
The random demodulator is a recent compressive sensing architecture providing
efficient sub-Nyquist sampling of sparse band-limited signals. The compressive
sensing paradigm requires an accurate model of the analog front-end to enable
correct signal reconstruction in the digital domain. In practice, hardware
devices such as filters deviate from their desired design behavior due to
component variations. Existing reconstruction algorithms are sensitive to such
deviations, which fall into the more general category of measurement matrix
perturbations. This paper proposes a model-based technique that aims to
calibrate filter model mismatches to facilitate improved signal reconstruction
quality. The mismatch is considered to be an additive error in the discretized
impulse response. We identify the error by sampling a known calibrating signal,
enabling least-squares estimation of the impulse response error. The error
estimate and the known system model are used to calibrate the measurement
matrix. Numerical analysis demonstrates the effectiveness of the calibration
method even for highly deviating low-pass filter responses. The proposed method
performance is also compared to a state of the art method based on discrete
Fourier transform trigonometric interpolation.Comment: 10 pages, 8 figures, submitted to IEEE Transactions on Signal

Linearized large signal modeling, analysis, and control design of phase-controlled series-parallel resonant converters using state feedback
This paper proposes a linearized large signal state-space model for the fixed-frequency phase-controlled series-parallel resonant converter. The proposed model utilizes state feedback of the output filter inductor current to perform linearization. The model combines multiple-frequency and average state-space modeling techniques to generate an aggregate model with dc state variables that are relatively easier to control and slower than the fast resonant tank dynamics. The main objective of the linearized model is to provide a linear representation of the converter behavior under large signal variation which is suitable for faster simulation and large signal estimation/calculation of the converter state variables. The model also provides insight into converter dynamics as well as a simplified reduced order transfer function for PI closed-loop design. Experimental and simulation results from a detailed switched converter model are compared with the proposed state-space model output to verify its accuracy and robustness
Compressive Wave Computation
This paper considers large-scale simulations of wave propagation phenomena.
We argue that it is possible to accurately compute a wavefield by decomposing
it onto a largely incomplete set of eigenfunctions of the Helmholtz operator,
chosen at random, and that this provides a natural way of parallelizing wave
simulations for memory-intensive applications.
This paper shows that L1-Helmholtz recovery makes sense for wave computation,
and identifies a regime in which it is provably effective: the one-dimensional
wave equation with coefficients of small bounded variation. Under suitable
assumptions we show that the number of eigenfunctions needed to evolve a sparse
wavefield defined on N points, accurately with very high probability, is
bounded by C log(N) log(log(N)), where C is related to the desired accuracy and
can be made to grow at a much slower rate than N when the solution is sparse.
The PDE estimates that underlie this result are new to the authors' knowledge
and may be of independent mathematical interest; they include an L1 estimate
for the wave equation, an estimate of extension of eigenfunctions, and a bound
for eigenvalue gaps in Sturm-Liouville problems.
Numerical examples are presented in one spatial dimension and show that as
few as 10 percents of all eigenfunctions can suffice for accurate results.
Finally, we argue that the compressive viewpoint suggests a competitive
parallel algorithm for an adjoint-state inversion method in reflection
seismology.Comment: 45 pages, 4 figure
