  • Publication number: 20110116542
    Abstract: The invention relates to an arithmetic encoding by bit planes (MSB, . . . , LSB), that comprises using tables of probability to have a 0 or 1 bit for encoding each bit plane. According to an embodiment of the invention, the probability tables are calculated dynamically for each signal frame based on a probability density model (Mod) corresponding to the distribution (H) of the signal (X) on each frame.
