Samsung patents logic gates for compressing data in electronic devices

Patent drawing
Patent drawing from the official filing.

Samsung describes an electronic device that uses a specific arrangement of logic gates to compress data streams. The system generates information about the data to create a smaller, compressed version of the original signal.

Why it mattersThis filing focuses on a low-level hardware method for making data storage and transmission more efficient within a device.

In the filing’s own words

An electronic device includes a compression device that generates a compressed bitstream from a data stream, the compressed bitstream representing a target symbol from an input bitstream representing an input symbol from the data stream including the input symbol and the target symbol. The compression device includes a compression information generator that generates compression-related information on the target symbol from the input bitstream, based on a logic gate network including plural logic gates arranged for data compression, and a coder that generates the compressed bitstream corresponding to the target symbol based on the compression-related information.

What exactly they claim (claim 1)

1. An electronic device comprising: a compression device that is configured to generate a compressed bitstream from a data stream, the compressed bitstream representing a target symbol from an input bitstream representing an input symbol from the data stream including the input symbol and the target symbol, wherein the compression device comprises: a compression information generator that is configured to generate compression-related information on the target symbol from the input bitstream, based on a logic gate network including a plurality of logic gates arranged for data compression; and a coder that is configured to generate the compressed bitstream corresponding to the target symbol based on the compression-related information.
