Blind Super-resolution of Point Sources via Projected Gradient Descent

Blind super-resolution can be cast as a low rank matrix recovery problem by exploiting the inherent simplicity of the signal and the low dimensional structure of point spread functions. In this paper, we develop a simple yet efficient non-convex projected gradient descent method for this problem based on the low rank structure of the vectorized Hankel matrix associated with the target matrix. Theoretical analysis indicates that the proposed method exactly converges to the target matrix with a linear convergence rate under the similar conditions as convex approaches. Numerical results show that our approach is competitive with existing convex approaches in terms of recovery ability and efficiency.

Vectorized Hankel Lift: A Convex Approach for Blind Super-Resolution of Point Sources

We consider the problem of resolving $ r$ point sources from $n$ samples at the low end of the spectrum when point spread functions (PSFs) are not known. Assuming that the spectrum samples of the PSFs lie in low dimensional subspace (let $s$ denote the dimension), this problem can be reformulated as a matrix recovery problem, followed by location estimation. By exploiting the low rank structure of the vectorized Hankel matrix associated with the target matrix, a convex approach called Vectorized Hankel Lift is proposed for the matrix recovery. It is shown that $n\gtrsim rs\log^4 n$ samples are sufficient for Vectorized Hankel Lift to achieve the exact recovery. For the location retrieval from the matrix, applying the single snapshot MUSIC method within the vectorized Hankel lift framework corresponds to the spatial smoothing technique proposed to improve the performance of the MMV MUSIC for the direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation.
