Waveform data compression with exact recovery

Summary form only given. A data compression technique has been developed for efficient communication and storage of seismic waveform data. The technique is also useful with similar kinds of continuous waveform data. It uses a special version of the linear predictive coding method, along with secondary bi-level sequence coding. The principal feature of this two-stage technique is that it provides exact, bit-for-bit recovery of the original data.<
