Signal reconstruction from phase or magnitude

In this paper, we develop a set of conditions under which a sequence is uniquely specified by the phase or samples of the phase of its Fourier transform, and a similar set of conditions under which a sequence is uniquely specified by the magnitude of its Fourier transform. These conditions are distinctly different from the minimum or maximum phase conditions, and are applicable to both one-dimensional and multidimensional sequences. Under the specified conditions, we also develop several algorithms which may be used to reconstruct a sequence from its phase or magnitude.
