description The volume of telemetry data is gradually increasing, both because of the increasingly larger number of parameters involved, and the use of higher sampling frequencies. Efficient data compression schemes are therefore needed in space telemetry systems to improve transmission efficiency and reduce the burden of required spacecraft resources, in particular regarding their transmitter power. In our primary study, a D-CLU algorithm was proposed to perform lossless compression for telemetry data, and achieve better performance. However, a limitation of this algorithm is that the compression time may become longer when the clustering head (CH) and outlier (which are compressed by LZW algorithm) numbers increase. To reduce compression delay, this paper proposed a modified character string (MCS) parallel search strategy for LZW algorithm (denoted by MCS-based LZW). The proposed MCS-based LZW algorithm designs coding principle, dictionary update rule and search strategy according to the character string matching results. Example verification and simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can effectively decrease the dictionary search times, and thus reduce the compression time.
