Abstract:Compressive sensing is a technology which allows us to sample at sub-Nyquist rate, then the signal can be recovered from the samples. In recent years, most research about compressive sensing focus on the domain of software. In this paper, presented is an architecture based on FPGA for the reconstruction of compressive sampled signals using orthogonal matching pursuit algorithm. QR-decomposition process is used to achieve the matrix pseudo inverse. Simulation results indicate that the architecture is available. Using the architecture based on the hardware, the signal reconstruction can no longer be confined to the software domain. This will reduce the signal reconstruction time and will expand the application field of the compressive sensing.
