  • Patent number: 9767812
    Abstract: Systems and methods for increasing transmission bandwidth efficiency by the analysis and synthesis of the ultimate components of transmitted content are presented. To implement such a system, a dictionary or database of elemental codewords can be generated from a set of audio clips. Using such a database, a given arbitrary song or other audio file can be expressed as a series of such codewords, where each given codeword in the series is a compressed audio packet that can be used as is, or, for example, can be tagged to be modified to better match the corresponding portion of the original audio file. Each codeword in the database has an index number or unique identifier. For a relatively small number of bits used in a unique ID, e.g. 27-30, several hundreds of millions of codewords can be uniquely identified.
