Abstract
Compressive sensing is an emerging field that attempts to prevent the losses associated with data compression and improve efficiency overall, and compressive sensing looks to perform the compression before or during capture, before energy is wasted. Here, several analog-to-digital converter (ADC) architectures are provided to perform compressive sensing. Each of these new architectures selects resolutions for each sample substantially at random and adjusts the sampling rate as a function of these selected resolutions.
