Data Compression Conference (dcc 2008)
Guaranteed Synchronization of Huffman Codes
March 25-March 27
ISBN: 978-0-7695-3121-2
In a text encoded with a Huffman code a bit error can propagate arbitrarily long. This paper introduces a method for limiting such error propagation to no more than L bits, L being a parameter of the algorithm. The method utilizes the inherent tendency of the codes to synchronize spontaneously and does not introduce any redundancy if such a synchronization takes place.
Index Terms:
Huffman Code, synchronization, synchronization delay, error resilience
