We propose an entirely redesigned framework of bandlimited signal reconstruction for the time encoding machine (TEM) introduced by Lazar and Tóth. As the encoding part of TEM consists in obtaining integral values of a bandlimited input over known time intervals, it theoretically amounts to applying a known linear operator on the input. We then approach the general question of signal reconstruction by pseudo-inversion of this operator. We perform this task numerically and iteratively using projections onto convex sets (POCS). The algorithm can be implemented exactly in discrete time with multiplications that are all reduced to scaling by signed powers of two, thanks to the use of relaxation coefficients. Meanwhile, the algorithm achieves a rate of convergence similar to that of Lazar and Tóth. For real-time processing, we propose an approximate time-varying FIR implementation, which avoids the splitting of the input into blocks. We finally propose some preliminary semi-convergence analysis of the algorithm under data noise.
