ABSTRACT:
A method and device for two-dimensionally coding digital facsimile signals, especially for the CCITT T.4 recommended standard. A line of digitized picture elements is coded with respect to a reference line of digitized picture elements. The run lengths of color units previous to color change picture elements in the coding and reference lines are accumulated, and the positions of the color change picture elements in the coding line with respect to the positions of the color change picture elements in the reference line are determined by the differences between the accumulated run lengths of the coding and reference line color change picture element and the reference line color change picture elements. The steps are selectively repeated in predetermined sequences responsive to the value of the accumulated run length differences. The present invention also provides for a facsimile device which has control logic for controlling the operations of the device, sequential generators of the accumulated run lengths of each change picture element in the coding line and reference line, logic for determining the differences in the accumulated run lengths of coding and reference line picture elements and an encoder for encoding the difference in accordance with a predetermined code, whereby the control logic responsive to the differences, selectively advances the generators for the accumulated run lengths of the next coding line and reference line change picture elements.
