L1/2-based iterative matrix completion for data transmission in lossy environment

We propose an L_1/2-based Iterative Matrix Completion algorithm for recovering the data transmitted with limited transmission window in the lossy environment to combat the high packet-loss rate. The transmission is regarded as the sampling process of Matrix Completion, hence the existing transmitting protocol or coding methods can be used to gain more samples and not mutually exclusive to the algorithm. The simulations with real world data show the effectiveness and efficiency of the scheme even the data are transmitted in the simplest way.
