Hybrid Approach to Compression of Multichannel Ultrasonic Array Data Using Dynamically Adjustable Bit Depth and Multiresolution Methods

Abstract

we studied redundancy and excessive data volume generated by multichannel ultrasonic arrays in diagnostic applications. We justified the need for a hybrid compression method that combines structural compression based on multiresolution methods with algorithmic encoding approaches, including techniques derived from MP4. We described the characteristics of the A-scan data format and outlined the parameters that affect data volume. We proposed a conceptual approach to a compression model that uses dynamically adjustable bit depth. The study is theoretical and focuses on potential directions for developing efficient compression algorithms without presenting experimental results.
