The ill-posedness of the problem is taken into account. First a Fredholm equation is regularized. Then it is transformed to a differential equation in the case where the time interval is R. A fast algorithm to solve the differential equation by the finite differences is given and a regularized spectral estimation formula is obtained. Then a regularized iterative extrapolation algorithm is introduced and compared with the Papoulis and Gerchberg algorithm. A time-frequency regularized extrapolation algorithm is presented in the two-dimensional case. The Gibbs phenomenon is analyzed. Then the time-frequency regularized extrapolation algorithm is applied to image restoration and compared with other algorithms.en-USExtrapolation of band-limited signalill-posedness, regularizationAn efficient method for an ill-posed problem [three dashes]band-limited extrapolation by regularizationDissertationMathematics (0405)
