Signal reconstruction from the phase of the bispectrum
Athina P. Petropulu, Chrysostomos L. Nikias · IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing · 1992
The authors present a simple procedure, the bispectrum signal reconstruction (BSR) algorithm, to recover the Fourier phase of a signal from the phase of its bispectrum. By simple analogy, a procedure that recovers the Fourier magnitude of a signal from the magnitude of its bispectrum is also presented. In addition, the authors propose an iterative scheme, the bicepstrum iterative reconstruction algorithm (BIRA), for the reconstruction of a finite impulse response (FIR) sequence from only the phase of its bispectrum, and they demonstrate how some a priori information on the energy of the cepstra coefficients can improve significantly the convergence rate of the algorithm. Both schemes are based on the key observation that the differences of the bispectrum coefficients contain all the information concerning the Fourier phase of the signal, whereas their sums contain the Fourier-magnitude information.>
