Data Compression Using Elias Delta Code
Andysah Putera Utama Siahaan · 2017
Compression is an activity performed to reduce its size into smaller than earlier. Compression is created since lack of adequate storage capacity. Data compression is also needed to speed up data transmission activity between computer networks. Compression has the different rule between speed and density. Compressed compression will take longer than compression that relies on speed. Elias Delta is one of the lossless compression techniques that can compress the characters. This compression is created based on the frequency of the character of a character on a document to be compressed. It works based on bit deductions on seven or eight bits. The most common characters will have the least number of bits, while the fewest characters will have the longest number of bits. The formation of character sets serves to eliminate double characters in the calculation of the number of each character as well as for the compression table storage. It has a good level of comparison between before and after compression. The speed of compression and decompression process possessed by this method is outstanding and fast.
