A new class of measurement operators for structured compressed sensing problems, termed 'hierarchical' measurement operators, is introduced. Standard Kronecker measurement operators are block-oriented treating each block equally whereas the hierarchical measurement operator allows for processing each block with a different matrix, e.g. mixtures of FFT and Gaussian matrices of different column space size and different sample frequencies each, which are received over multiple antennas. We prove that such hierarchical measurement operators exhibit a hierarchical RIP (HiRIP) property provided the involved matrices have a suitable standard RIP, implying recovery guarantees for a class of algorithm involving hierarchical thresholding operations. Thereby, we generalize prior work on the recovery of hierarchically sparse signals from Kroneckerstructured linear measurements. This structure arises in a variety of communication scenarios in the context of massive internet of things. We numerical demonstrate that the fast and scalable HiHTP algorithm is suitable for solving these types of problems and evaluate its performance in terms of sparse signal recovery and block detection capability.
