Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSMeasurement precision

Solution Approach 1:

The data sequence is divided into multiple sub-sequences, and each sub-sequence is compressed independently using the SDT algorithm. This segmentation allows for better error control within each segment while maintaining overall compression efficiency, resolving the contradiction between transmission efficiency and compression accuracy.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #1Segmentation

Solution Approach 2:

The invention dynamically adjusts the compression threshold parameter based on the characteristics of different data segments. By changing the parameter adaptively, the system can achieve high compression ratios for suitable segments while maintaining lower error rates for segments requiring higher precision, thus balancing transmission efficiency and compression error.

Solution Approach 1:

By segmenting the data into multiple sub-sequences, the invention enables differential compression strategies for different segments. Critical data segments can be compressed with lower thresholds to maintain accuracy, while less critical segments can use higher compression ratios, thus improving transmission speed without uniformly sacrificing data accuracy.

Inventive Principle:

Solution Approach 2:

The invention applies different compression quality levels to different local segments of the data based on their importance and characteristics. This local quality approach ensures that data accuracy is maintained where needed while achieving high transmission speeds in other areas, resolving the contradiction between speed and accuracy.
