V.42bis
An ITU standard (1989) for modem data compression. It uses the BTLZ technique to achieve up to a 4:1 ratio. V.42bis implies the V.42 error checking protocol.
(communications, standard)V.42bis - An extension of the ITU-T V.42 standard modem protocol to included compression using a Lempel-Ziv related technique, which detects frequently occurring character strings and replaces them with tokens. This is similar to the Unix compress utility. Typical compression for text is 50% or better; with nearly 20% gain from synchronous conversion this gives reduces transmission time by almost 60%.

44 data compression capability, which typically improves data compression by some 20% to 60% over the V.
44 technique typically improves data compression between 20 and 60 percent beyond the existing V.
Higher throughput can be achieved (200 kbps to 300 kbps) by ITU-T V.
