Project Proposal

Abstract
This project aims to effectively reconstruct an MRI signal using Fourier frames. We begin by describing the theoretical framework of a Fourier frame on the Paley-Wiener space PWB(0,R). We then invoke Beurling’s theorem to prove that we can choose points along interleaving spirals in the spectral domain to construct a Fourier frame for PWB(0,R). We use frame notation to extend these results to the signal space of a square image, forming a reconstruction algorithm that results in an overdetermined linear system. We implement two different algorithms to solve the least-squares approximation in order to recover the spatial components of the MRI signal.
