International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 25-28, 1999 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / Bandwidth is a precious commodity. In order to make the best use of what is available, better modulation schemes need to be developed, or less data needs to be sent. This paper will investigate the option of sending less data via data compression. The structure and the entropy of the data determine how much lossless compression can be obtained for a given set of data. This paper shows the data structure and entropy for several actual telemetry data sets and the resulting lossless compression obtainable using data compression techniques.

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 18-21, 2004 / Town & Country Resort, San Diego, California / Reduction of bandwidth for signal transmission is of paramount concern to many in the telemetry and wireless industry. One way to reduce bandwidth is to reduce the amount data being sent. There are several techniques available to reduce the amount of data. This paper will review the various types of data compression currently in use for telemetry data and how much compression is achieved.

Multistream compression is based on a transformation significantly different from the ones commonly used for data compression. This Master thesis concerns with the use of said method for the compression of text files written in natural language. The main goal of the thesis is to find suitable preprocessing methods for text transformation, which would enable the Multistream compression to achieve better compression ratios, together with searching for the best methods for coding of individual streams. The practical part of the thesis deals with the implementation of several transformation algorithms into the XBW project.

International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 20-23, 2003 / Riviera Hotel and Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / Reduction of signal transmission is of paramount concern to many in the telemetry and wireless industry. One technique that is available is the compression of the data before transmission. With telemetry type data, there are many approaches that can be used to achieve compression. Data compression of the Advanced Range Telemetry (ARTM) PCM data sets in the frame and packet modes, and for the entire data file will be considered and compared. The technique of differencing data will also be applied to the data files by subtracting the previous major frame and then applying compression techniques. It will be demonstrated that telemetry compression is a viable option to reduce the amount of data to be transmitted, and hence the bandwidth. However, this compression produces variable-length data segments with implications for real-time data synchronization.
