Determining k-space trajectories inductively is conceptually simple, but rely on integration of the induced signal. Performing this integration digitally allow for higher degree of flexibility than analog integration, which is necessary to account for, e.g., refocusing RF pulses. Digital integration, however, require high bandwidth sampling of the induced signal as digitization error accumulate, making the overall approach less attractive. We show that the necessary bandwidth can be reduced by performing regularization using a gradient coil current measure.
