In
this work, we propose a motion-robust auto-calibrating Wave-CS technique. This technique uses the wave-encoded center k-space and the known point-spread-function (PSF) of wave-encoding
to reconstruct a Cartesian central k-space for calibration. The coil sensitivity maps are subsequently estimated with ESPIRiT for CS-SENSE reconstruction of under-sampled k-spaces. Results show this approach can reduce the motion artifacts and the
aliasing artifacts due to sensitivity variations between the calibration and accelerated wave-encoded acquisitions.
