ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for reducing the necessary size of a buffer between two cascaded decoding stages is described. The present invention includes a method and apparatus for encoding data into multiple blocks of data. The present invention also includes a method and apparatus for encoding the multiple blocks of data into multiple symbols. This encoding includes a method and apparatus for limiting the multiple symbols to a predetermined number of symbols. By limiting the symbols encoded, the buffer after the decoding stage is limited so that the size of the buffer memory to buffer decompressed data output from the decoding stage is reduced.
