Design and Analysis of a Hardware-Efficient Compressed Sensing Architecture for Data Compression in Wireless Sensors
TL;DR: The design and measurement of the proposed architecture is presented in the context of medical sensors, however the tools and insights are generally applicable to any sparse data acquisition.
