US Patent 11164545 Compression of display data

A method involves receiving, at a host device, information indicative of available bandwidth on a variable bandwidth connection between the host device and a display control device, which may be based on monitoring a signal level on the connection, a link radio modulation mode, traffic on the connection, or the data rate of any return signals from the display control device. The method includes setting one or more parameters used to generate the display data that change compressibility of the display data based on the information, where compressibility of the display data affects efficiency of compression of the display data, and where the setting of the parameters may be based on a compression algorithm used when compressing the display data. The method includes generating the display data using the one or more parameters, compressing the display data, and transmitting the display data to the display control device.
