Compressive Phase Retrieval From Squared Output Measurements Via Semidefinite Programming
Given a linear system in a real or complex domain, linear regression aims to
recover the model parameters from a set of observations. Recent studies in
compressive sensing have successfully shown that under certain conditions, a
linear program, namely, l1-minimization, guarantees recovery of sparse
parameter signals even when the system is underdetermined. In this paper, we
consider a more challenging problem: when the phase of the output measurements
from a linear system is omitted. Using a lifting technique, we show that even
though the phase information is missing, the sparse signal can be recovered
exactly by solving a simple semidefinite program when the sampling rate is
sufficiently high, albeit the exact solutions to both sparse signal recovery
and phase retrieval are combinatorial. The results extend the type of
applications that compressive sensing can be applied to those where only output
magnitudes can be observed. We demonstrate the accuracy of the algorithms
through theoretical analysis, extensive simulations and a practical experiment.Comment: Parts of the derivations have submitted to the 16th IFAC Symposium on
