Patent ID: 8554746

Claim:
A method for compressing data messages generated by multiple data sources, the data messages containing encoded signals, the method comprising: extracting and partitioning, by an electronic computing system, the encoded signals into data partitions, the data included in each data partition containing inter-data-source redundancies; and for each data partition, compressing, by an electronic computing system, the data in the data partition to remove the inter-data-source redundancies, wherein compressing the data in the data partition to remove the inter-data-source redundancies further includes: when the data partition includes multiple encoded data source signals, normalizing and aligning the encoded data source signals; ordering the multiple encoded data source signals to produce an ordering of the encoded data source signals that facilitates detection of inter-data-source redundancies during data compression; and applying a two-dimensional compression method to compress the ordered multiple encoded data source signals.
