Decentralized Turbo Bayesian Compressed Sensing with application to UWB systems

Abstract

In many situations, there exist plenty of spatial and temporal redundancies in original signals. Based on this observation, a novel Turbo Bayesian Compressed Sensing (TBCS) algorithm is proposed to provide an efficient approach to transfer and incorporate this redundant information for joint sparse signal reconstruction. As a case study, the TBCS algorithm is applied in Ultra-Wideband (UWB) systems. A space-time TBCS structure is developed for exploiting and incorporating the spatial and temporal a priori information for space-time signal reconstruction. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed TBCS algorithm achieves much better performance with only a few measurements in the presence of noise, compared with the traditional Bayesian Compressed Sensing (BCS) and multitask BCS algorithms. © 2011 Depeng Yang et al.
