Abstract

from arXiv · show

We develop a multichannel sampling and reconstruction framework for multidimensional principal shift-invariant spaces based on a finite-dimensional polyphase representation. Periodic nonuniform shifts and derivative measurements are modeled as analysis channels, leading to a frequency-domain linear system relating the measurements to the polyphase components of the underlying coefficient sequence. Stable recovery is characterized through uniform singular-value bounds on the associated polyphase matrix, and explicit synthesis kernels are obtained from its Moore Penrose left inverse. The formulation applies to both separable and genuinely non-separable generators and includes several classical one dimensional sampling formulas as special cases. For irregular derivative measurements, where the periodic polyphase structure is no longer directly available, we develop an iterative reconstruction method based on local bivariate Hermite interpolation followed by orthogonal projection onto the shift-invariant space. A sufficient contraction condition is derived to guarantee geometric convergence of the iteration. Numerical experiments demonstrate the reconstruction performance for separable and non-separable generators and illustrate robustness to additive measurement noise and sampling-location perturbations.
