Abstract(in English) Arithmetic codes are known as alphabetic codes.In this report, we expand alphabetic arithmetic codes into non-alphabetic arithmetic codes.Therefore, there possibly is a code with better performance than any ordinary arithmetic codes by incorporating the order of information source symbols into the design parameters.In this report, we propose a search algorithm for optimal non-alphabetic arithmetic codes based on $A^{ast}$algorithm and prove its optimality.
