ABSTRACT
Given limited or incomplete measurement data on a sphere, a
new iterative algorithm is proposed on how to extrapolate signal
over the whole sphere. The algorithm is based on a priori assump-
tion that the Fourier decomposition of the signal on the sphere has
finite degree of spherical harmonic coefficients, that is, the signal
is modelimited. The algorithm is a simple iteration involving only
the spherical harmonic decomposition. It is proven that the algo-
rithm converges to the original signal over observation region and
the convergence rate is lower bounded by the largest eigenvalue of
an associated Fredholm integral equation.
