Sampling is classically performed by recording the amplitude of an input signal at given time instants; however, sampling and reconstructing a signal using multiple devices in parallel becomes a more difficult problem to solve when the devices have an unknown shift in their clocks. Alternatively, one can record the times at which a signal (or its integral) crosses given thresholds. This can model integrate-and-fire neurons, for example, and has been studied by Lazar and Toth under the name of ``Time Encoding Machines. This sampling method is closer to what is found in nature. In this paper, we show that, when using time encoding machines, reconstruction from multiple channels has a more intuitive solution, and does not require the knowledge of the shifts between machines. We show that, if single-channel time encoding can sample and perfectly reconstruct a $mathbf{2Omega}$-bandlimited signal, then $mathbf{M}$-channel time encoding with shifted integrators can sample and perfectly reconstruct a signal with $mathbf{M}$ times the bandwidth. Furthermore, we present an algorithm to perform this reconstruction and prove that it converges to the correct unique solution, in the noiseless case, without knowledge of the relative shifts between the integrators of the machines. This is quite unlike classical multi-channel sampling, where unknown shifts between sampling devices pose a problem for perfect reconstruction.

Conventional sampling focuses on encoding and decoding bandlimited signals by recording signal amplitudes at known time points. Alternately, sampling can be approached using biologically-inspired schemes. Among these are integrate-and-fire time encoding machines (IF-TEMs). They behave like simplifi
For a wide family of even kernels ${varphi_u, uin I}$, we describe discrete sets $Lambda$ such that every bandlimited signal $f$ can be reconstructed from the space-time samples ${(fastvarphi_u)(lambda), lambdainLambda, uin I}$.
Reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RISs) are one of the foremost technological enablers of future wireless systems. They improve communication and localization by providing a strong non-line-of-sight path to the receiver. In this paper, we propose a pilot transmission method to enable the receiver to separate signals arriving from different RISs and from the uncontrolled multipath. This facilitates channel estimation and localization, as the channel or its geometric parameters can be estimated for each path separately. Our method is based on designing temporal phase profiles that are orthogonal across RISs without affecting the RIS beamforming capabilities. We take into consideration the limited resolution of the RIS phase shifters and show that in the presence of this practical limitation, orthogonal phase profiles can be designed based on Butson-type Hadamard matrices. For a localization scenario, we show that with our proposed method the estimator can attain the theoretical lower bound even with one-bit RIS phase resolution.
As technology grows, higher frequency signals are required to be processed in various applications. In order to digitize such signals, conventional analog to digital convertors are facing implementation challenges due to the higher sampling rates. Hence, lower sampling rates (i.e., sub-Nyquist) are considered to be cost efficient. A well-known approach is to consider sparse signals that have fewer nonzero frequency components compared to the highest frequency component. For the prior knowledge of the sparse positions, well-established methods already exist. However, there are applications where such information is not available. For such cases, a number of approaches have recently been proposed. In this paper, we propose several random sampling recovery algorithms which do not require any anti-aliasing filter. Moreover, we offer certain conditions under which these recovery techniques converge to the signal. Finally, we also confirm the performance of the above methods through extensive simulations.
The orbital angular momentum (OAM) of photons is a promising degree of freedom for high-dimensional quantum key distribution (QKD). However, effectively mitigating the adverse effects of atmospheric turbulence is a persistent challenge in OAM QKD systems operating over free-space communication channels. In contrast to previous works focusing on correcting static simulated turbulence, we investigate the performance of OAM QKD in real atmospheric turbulence with real-time adaptive optics (AO) correction. We show that, even our AO system provides a limited correction, it is possible to mitigate the errors induced by weak turbulence and establish a secure channel. The crosstalk induced by turbulence and the performance of AO systems is investigated in two configurations: a lab-scale link with controllable turbulence, and a 340 m long cross-campus link with dynamic atmospheric turbulence. Our experimental results suggest that an advanced AO system with fine beam tracking, reliable beam stabilization, precise wavefront sensing, and accurate wavefront correction is necessary to adequately correct turbulence-induced error. We also propose and demonstrate different solutions to improve the performance of OAM QKD with turbulence, which could enable the possibility of OAM encoding in strong turbulence.
