Method and apparatus for compression in wireless communication systems. The apparatus compresses a signal based on an encoder scheme, wherein an encoded signal comprises at least a first CRC associated with a prediction index and a second CRC associated with a prediction information component. The apparatus transmits, to a second wireless device, the encoded signal comprising at least the first CRC associated with the prediction index and the second CRC associated with the prediction information component. The apparatus may be configured to compress the signal such that the signal comprises one or more parity bits, where the one or more parity bits correspond to a difference between a frame of the signal and at least one subsequent frame of the signal.
