Multipolar Acoustic Source Reconstruction From Sparse Far-Field Data Using ALOHA
The reconstruction of multipolar acoustic or electromagnetic sources from their far-field
signature plays a crucial role in numerous applications. Most of the existing techniques
require dense multi-frequency data at the Nyquist sampling rate. The availability of a sub-
sampled grid contributes to the null space of the inverse source-to-data operator, which
causes significant imaging artifacts. For this purpose, additional knowledge about the source
or regularization is required. In this letter, we propose a novel two-stage strategy for …

The reconstruction of multipolar acoustic or electromagnetic sources from their far-field signature plays a crucial role in numerous applications. Most of the existing techniques require dense multi-frequency data at the Nyquist sampling rate. The availability of a sub-sampled grid contributes to the null space of the inverse source-to-data operator, which causes significant imaging artifacts. For this purpose, additional knowledge about the source or regularization is required. In this letter, we propose a novel two-stage strategy for multipolar source reconstruction from sub-sampled sparse data that takes advantage of the sparsity of the sources in the physical domain. The data at the Nyquist sampling rate is recovered from sub-sampled data and then a conventional inversion algorithm is used to reconstruct sources. The data recovery problem is linked to a spectrum recovery problem for the signal with the finite rate of innovations (FIR) that is solved using an annihilating filter-based structured Hankel matrix completion approach (ALOHA). For an accurate reconstruction, a Fourier inversion algorithm is used. The suitability of the approach is supported by experiments.
