1. A method of compressing data for data transfer within an electronic device, the method comprising:
receiving, at a first processing member of the electronic device, a plurality of data samples produced by a member of the electronic device, wherein the data samples comprise numerical bits;
restructuring, by the first processing member, the plurality of data samples into a plurality of data packets;
labelling each data packet with a sample indicator bit to indicate a plurality of groups across the plurality of data packets, wherein each group of the plurality of groups corresponds to a different respective data sample;
transferring a bit stream comprising at least some of the plurality of data packets across an interface of the electronic device to a receiving member of the electronic device;
decoding the bit stream, by a second processing member of the electronic device, to obtain at least some of the plurality of the data samples, the decoding being based at least in part on the sample indicator bits.
