Abstract
When encoding a block of data elements in an array of data elements, the data values for data elements in the block are represented and stored in a data packet as truncated data values using a subset of one or more most significant bits of the respective bit sequences for the data values of the data elements. A rounding mode is selected from a plurality of available rounding modes that can be applied when decoding the block of data elements and an indication of the selected rounding mode is provided along with the encoded data packet. The rounding mode is associated with one or more rounding bit sequence(s) that can then be applied to the truncated data values when decoding the data packet to obtain decoded data values for the data elements in the block.
