Multi-narrowband signals receiving method based on analog-to-information convertor and block sparsity

摘要

The analog-to-information convertor(AIC) is a successful practice of compressive sensing(CS) theory in the analog signal acquisition. This paper presents a multi-narrowband signals sampling and reconstruction model based on AIC and block sparsity. To overcome the practical problems, the block sparsity is divided into uniform block and non-uniform block situations, and the block restricted isometry property and sub-sampling limit in different situations are analyzed respectively in detail. Theoretical analysis proves that using the block sparsity in AIC can reduce the restricted isometric constant, increase the reconstruction probability and reduce the sub-sampling rate. Simulation results show that the proposed model can complete sub-sampling and reconstruction for multi-narrowband signals. This paper extends the application range of AIC from the finite information rate signal to the multi-narrowband signals by using the potential relevance of support sets. The proposed receiving model has low complexity and is easy to implement, which can promote the application of CS theory in the radar receiver to reduce the burden of analog-todigital convertor(ADC) and solve bandwidth limitations of ADC.
