Abstract
A method of encoding data into a frame, includes the step of providing a frame having a plurality of byte locations for storing a plurality of bytes each associated with one of the byte locations. The value of the initial byte location of the frame is stored in a temporary register. An address of a first byte location having zero value is stored in the initial byte location of the frame. A continuation bit associated with the address of said first byte location is set. The value of the initial byte is stored in the first byte location. The non-zero valued bytes of information are stored in their associated byte locations of the frame. When the initial byte location contains zero, the last location containing an address of a zero valued byte repeats the previous address having a zero valued byte.
