Stress wave technology is very suitable for detecting internal defects of standing trees, logs, and wood and has gradually become the mainstream technology in this research field. Usually, 12 sensors are positioned equidistantly around the cross-section of tree trunks in order to obtain enough stress wave signals. However, the arrangement of sensors is time-consuming and laborious, and maintaining the accuracy of stress wave imaging under sparse signals is a challenging problem. In this paper, a novel stress wave hybrid imaging method based on compressive sensing and elliptic interpolation is proposed. The spatial structure of the defective area is reconstructed by using the advantages of compressive sensing in sparse signal representation and solution of stress waves, and the healthy area is reconstructed by using the elliptic space interpolation method. Then, feature points are selected and mixed for imaging. The comparative experimental results show that the overall imaging accuracy of the proposed method reaches 89.7%, and the high-quality imaging effect can be guaranteed when the number of sensors is reduced to 10, 8, or even 6.
