Robust Multidimentional Chinese Remainder Theorem for Integer Vector Reconstruction (2311.11804v1)

Abstract: The problem of robustly reconstructing an integer vector from its erroneous remainders appears in many applications in the field of multidimensional (MD) signal processing. To address this problem, a robust MD Chinese remainder theorem (CRT) was recently proposed for a special class of moduli, where the remaining integer matrices left-divided by a greatest common left divisor (gcld) of all the moduli are pairwise commutative and coprime. The strict constraint on the moduli limits the usefulness of the robust MD-CRT in practice. In this paper, we investigate the robust MD-CRT for a general set of moduli. We first introduce a necessary and sufficient condition on the difference between paired remainder errors, followed by a simple sufficient condition on the remainder error bound, for the robust MD-CRT for general moduli, where the conditions are associated with (the minimum distances of) these lattices generated by gcld's of paired moduli, and a closed-form reconstruction algorithm is presented. We then generalize the above results of the robust MD-CRT from integer vectors/matrices to real ones. Finally, we validate the robust MD-CRT for general moduli by employing numerical simulations, and apply it to MD sinusoidal frequency estimation based on multiple sub-Nyquist samplers.
