Abstract: A method including separating multiple signal waveforms into multiple blocks forming a sequence is provided. Each of the blocks includes at least a portion of each of the multiple signal waveforms. The method includes identifying a shared time portion and a shared signal portion for the signal waveforms within a first block from the multiple blocks and selecting a format for the first block based on a block size of the first block and a block read time of the first block. The method also includes compressing data in the first block based on the shared time portion, the shared signal portion, a preceding block and a subsequent block in the sequence, and storing the first block in a memory based on the format selected for the first block.
