For the second compression routine, assume that its sophisticated nature requires a larger amount of computational processing power, affecting the rate at which data can transferred from the terminal to the communication line. Let us further assume that the ITR is lowered to 0.4 due to the additional delays. Then the 1.61compression ration of this routine would result n a TRIB of approximately 0.4*1.61.9600 or 6184 bps. In this particular illustration, increasing the compression ratio resulted in a decrease in the overall effective data transfer rate.
