In the context of the phase retrieval problem, it is known that certain natural classes of measurements, such as Fourier measurements and random Bernoulli measurements, do not lead to the unique reconstruction of all possible signals, even in combination with certain practically feasible random masks. To avoid this difficulty, the analysis is often restricted to measurement ensembles (or masks) that satisfy a small-ball probability condition, in order to ensure that the reconstruction is unique. This paper shows a complementary result: for random Bernoulli measurements, there is still a large class of signals that can be reconstructed uniquely, namely those signals that are non-peaky. In fact, this result is much more general: it holds for random measurements sampled from any subgaussian distribution D, without any small-ball conditions. This is demonstrated in two ways: first, a proof of stability and uniqueness, and second, a uniform recovery guarantee for the PhaseLift algorithm. In all of these cases, the number of measurements m approaches the information-theoretic lower bound. Finally, for random Bernoulli measurements with erasures, it is shown that PhaseLift achieves uniform recovery of all signals (including peaky ones).

In recent years, the mathematical and algorithmic aspects of the phase retrieval problem have received considerable attention. Many papers in this area mention crystallography as a principal application. In crystallography, the signal to be recovered is periodic and comprised of atomic distributions arranged homogeneously in the unit cell of the crystal. The crystallographic problem is both the leading application and one of the hardest forms of phase retrieval. We have constructed a graded set of benchmark problems for evaluating algorithms that perform this type of phase retrieval. The data, publicly available online, is provided in an easily interpretable format. We also propose a simple and unambiguous success/failure criterion based on the actual needs in crystallography. Baseline runtimes were obtained with an iterative algorithm that is similar but more transparent than those used in crystallography. Empirically, the runtimes grow exponentially with respect to a new hardness parameter: the sparsity of the signal autocorrelation. We also review the algorithms used by the leading software packages. This set of benchmark problems, we hope, will encourage the development of new algorithms for the phase retrieval problem in general, and crystallography in particular.
In a variety of fields, in particular those involving imaging and optics, we often measure signals whose phase is missing or has been irremediably distorted. Phase retrieval attempts the recovery of the phase information of a signal from the magnitud e of its Fourier transform to enable the reconstruction of the original signal. A fundamental question then is: Under which conditions can we uniquely recover the signal of interest from its measured magnitudes? In this paper, we assume the measured signal to be sparse. This is a natural assumption in many applications, such as X-ray crystallography, speckle imaging and blind channel estimation. In this work, we derive a sufficient condition for the uniqueness of the solution of the phase retrieval (PR) problem for both discrete and continuous domains, and for one and multi-dimensional domains. More precisely, we show that there is a strong connection between PR and the turnpike problem, a classic combinatorial problem. We also prove that the existence of collisions in the autocorrelation function of the signal may preclude the uniqueness of the solution of PR. Then, assuming the absence of collisions, we prove that the solution is almost surely unique on 1-dimensional domains. Finally, we extend this result to multi-dimensional signals by solving a set of 1-dimensional problems. We show that the solution of the multi-dimensional problem is unique when the autocorrelation function has no collisions, significantly improving upon a previously known result.

Phase retrieval attempts to recover the phase information of a signal from the magnitude of its Fourier transform to enable the reconstruction of the original signal. Solving the phase retrieval problem is equivalent to recovering a signal from its auto-correlation function. In this paper, we assume the original signal to be sparse; this is a natural assumption in many applications, such as X-ray crystallography, speckle imaging and blind channel estimation. We propose an algorithm that resolves the phase retrieval problem in three stages: i) we leverage the finite rate of innovation sampling theory to super-resolve the auto-correlation function from a limited number of samples, ii) we design a greedy algorithm that identifies the locations of a sparse solution given the super-resolved auto-correlation function, iii) we recover the amplitudes of the atoms given their locations and the measured auto-correlation function. Unlike traditional approaches that recover a discrete approximation of the underlying signal, our algorithm estimates the signal on a continuous domain, which makes it the first of its kind. Along with the algorithm, we derive its performance bound with a theoretical analysis and propose a set of enhancements to improve its computational complexity and noise resilience. Finally, we demonstrate the benefits of the proposed method via a comparison against Charge Flipping, a notable algorithm in crystallography.
We consider the phase retrieval problem for signals that belong to a union of subspaces. We assume that amplitude measurements of the signal of length $n$ are observed after passing it through a random $m times n$ measurement matrix. We also assume t hat the signal belongs to the span of a single $d$-dimensional subspace out of $R$ subspaces, where $dll n$. We assume the knowledge of all possible subspaces, but the true subspace of the signal is unknown. We present an algorithm that jointly estimates the phase of the measurements and the subspace support of the signal. We discuss theoretical guarantees on the recovery of signals and present simulation results to demonstrate the empirical performance of our proposed algorithm. Our main result suggests that if properly initialized, then $O(d+log R)$ random measurements are sufficient for phase retrieval if the unknown signal belongs to the union of $R$ low-dimensional subspaces.
In this work, we study the outage probability (OP) at the destination of an intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) assisted communication system in a $kappa-mu$ fading environment. A practical system model that takes into account the presence of phase error due to quantization at the IRS when a) source-destination (SD) link is present and b) SD link is absent is considered. First, an exact expression is derived, and then we derive three simple approximations for the OP using the following approaches: (i) uni-variate dimension reduction, (ii) moment matching and, (iii) Kullback-Leibler divergence minimization. The resulting expressions for OP are simple to evaluate and quite tight even in the tail region. The validity of these approximations is demonstrated using extensive Monte Carlo simulations. We also study the impact of the number of bits available for quantization, the position of IRS with respect to the source and destination and the number of IRS elements on the OP for systems with and without an SD link.
