Reconstruction of multidimensional bandlimited signals from nonuniform and generalized samples

This paper addresses the problem of multidimensional signal reconstruction from nonuniform or generalized samples. Typical solutions in the literature for this problem utilize continuous filtering. The key result of the current paper is a multidimensional "interpolation" identity, which establishes the equivalence of two multidimensional processing operations. One of these uses continuous domain filters, whereas the other uses discrete processing. This result has obvious benefits in the context of the afore mentioned problem. The results here expand and generalize earlier work by other authors on the one-dimensional (1-D) case. Potential applications include two-dimensional (2-D) images and video signals.
