    Abstract: A method for efficient transmission of coefficients examines a coefficient list, presents the coefficients as binary floating point representation, and transmits the list of coefficients as a header having an exponent prefix, a fractional suffix, and each coefficient value as an exponent suffix and fractional prefix. A method for reception of coefficients receives a header including an exponent prefix, a fractional suffix, thereafter receiving each value as a sign bit, an exponent suffix and a fractional prefix, reconstituting an approximation of the original value, in sequence, as a sign bit, exponent prefix exponent suffix, fraction prefix, and fraction suffix, thereby greatly reducing the amount of information to be transmitted or received.
