First, a new generalized Dictionary-Restricted Isometry Property (D-RIP) sparsity bound constant for CS is established. Second, experiments with a tight frame to analyze sparsity and reconstruction quality using several signal and image types are shown. The constant \"\" is used in fulfilling the definition of D-RIP. It is proved that k-sparse signals can be reconstructed if \"\" by using a concise and transparent argument1. The approach could be extended to obtain other D-RIP bounds (i.e. \"\"). Experiments contrast results of a Gabor tight frame with Total Variation minimization. In cases of practical interest, the use of a Gabor dictionary performs well when achieving a highly sparse representation and poorly when this sparsity is not achieved. %K Compressed Sensing %K Total Variation Minimization %K l< %K sub> %K 1< %K /sub> %K -Analysis %K D-Restricted Isometry Property %K Tight Frames %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=63986
