Versatile shaping of optical frequency combs and applications

Jianqi Hu

Optical frequency combs are a series of phase-locked and equidistant laser lines in the spectral domain. In the time domain, they correspond to periodic pulse trains by the Fourier relation. The ability to shape optical combs and pulse trains is pivotal to ...

CPGD: Cadzow Plug-and-Play Gradient Descent for Generalised FRI

Martin Vetterli, Paul Hurley, Adrien Georges Jean Besson, Matthieu Martin Jean-André Simeoni

Finite rate of innovation (FRI) is a powerful reconstruction framework enabling the recovery of sparse Dirac streams from uniform low-pass filtered samples. An extension of this framework, called generalised FRI (genFRI), has been recently proposed for han ...

Stabilization and Performance Improvement of Power-Hardware-in-the-Loop Test Using a Robust Data-Driven Method

Alireza Karimi, Seyed Sohail Madani

Power-Hardware-in-the-Loop (PHIL) setups have gained high importance in validation of the performance of newly developed instruments and devices with low risk and implementation cost. However, the interconnection of a power hardware with a simulated model ...

Sampling and Reconstruction of Bandlimited Signals with Multi-Channel Time Encoding

Martin Vetterli, Adam James Scholefield, Karen Adam

Sampling is classically performed by recording the amplitude of the input at given time instants; however, sampling and reconstructing a signal using multiple devices in parallel becomes a more difficult problem to solve when the devices have an unknown sh ...

Multi-channel Time Encoding for Improved Reconstruction of Bandlimited Signals

Martin Vetterli, Adam James Scholefield, Karen Adam

Traditional sampling involves encoding a signal through (time, value)-pairs. In contrast, time encoding machines (TEMs) characterize a signal by recording time points which depend on the integral of the signal over time. We study multi-channel TEMs where c ...

Spectral Purification of Microwave Signals with Disciplined Dissipative Kerr Solitons

Tobias Kippenberg, Erwan Guillaume Albert Lucas, Hairun Guo, Wenle Weng

Continuous-wave-driven Kerr nonlinear microresonators give rise to self-organization in terms of dissipative Kerr solitons, which constitute optical frequency combs that can be used to generate low-noise microwave signals. Here, by applying either amplitud ...

Compressive Sampling Using Annihilating Filter-Based Low-Rank Interpolation

Kyong Hwan Jin

While the recent theory of compressed sensing provides an opportunity to overcome the Nyquist limit in recovering sparse signals, a solution approach usually takes the form of an inverse problem of an unknown signal, which is crucially dependent on specifi ...

GlobalBioIm: A Unifying Computational Framework for Solving Inverse Problems

Michaël Unser, Laurène Donati, Ferréol Arnaud Marie Soulez, Michael Thompson McCann, Emmanuel Emilien Louis Soubies

We present a unifying framework for the development of state-of-the-art reconstruction algorithms in computational optics with a clear separation between the physical (forward model) and signal-related (regularization, incorporation of prior constraints) a ...

High-Quality Parallel-Ray x-Ray CT Back Projection Using Optimized Interpolation

Michaël Unser, Michael Thompson McCann

We propose a new, cost-efficient method for computing back projections in parallel-ray X-ray CT. Forward and back projections are the basis of almost all X-ray CT reconstruction methods, but computing these accurately is costly. In the special case of para ...
