Apparatus and method for coding picture data

摘要

A coding apparatus for hierarchically (layering) coding top field data and bottom field data divided from each of a plurality of picture data composing a moving picture image has a first coding unit configured to encode one field data between two field data of the top field data and the bottom field data divided from the picture data, a conversion unit configured to interpolate first predicted image data generated by the first coding unit encoding above one field data and generate a second predicted image data of a scanning position of the other field data between the two field data, and a second coding unit configured to encode the other field data between the two field data based on the second predicted image data generated by the conversion unit.

1. An apparatus for coding image data, comprising:
a hierarchical circuit configured to divide picture data of an image frame into first and second field data; a first coding unit configured to encode the first field data to generate first predicted image data; a conversion unit configured to interpolate the first predicted image data to generate second predicted image data; and a second coding unit configured to encode the second field data based on the second predicted image data.
