A robust compression system for low bit rate telemetry: Test results with lunar data
Khalid Sayood, Martin Rost · NASA Technical Reports Server (NASA) · 1989
A robust noiseless encoding scheme is presented for encoding the gamma ray spectroscopy data. The encoding algorithm is simple to implement and has minimal buffering requirements. The decoder contains error correcting capability in the form of a MAP receiver. While the MAP receiver adds some complexity, this is limited to the decoder. Nothing additional is needed at the encoder side for its functioning.
