In radio interferometry, every pair of antennas in an array defines one sampling point in the Fourier domain of the sky image. By combining information from different wavelengths, sample coverage - and therefore reconstruction quality - can be increased. However, the images at different wavelengths can be dramatically dissimilar; this fact must be taken into account when reconstructing multi-frequency images. In this paper, we present a novel reconstruction algorithm based on the assumption that the spectrum is continuous. In contrast to prior work, we allow for sparse deviations from this assumption: this allows, for example, for accurate reconstruction of line spectra superimposed on a continuum. Using simulated measurements on synthetic multi-frequency images, we show that the proposed approach provides significant improvements over a comparable method based solely on a continuity assumption.
