A method and apparatus for clipping a transform coefficient are disclosed. Embodiments according to the present invention avoid overflow of the quantized transform coefficient by clipping the quantization level adaptively after quantization. In one embodiment, the method comprises generating the quantization level for the transform coefficient of a transform unit by quantizing the transform coefficient according to a quantization matrix and quantization parameter. The clipping condition is determined and the quantization level is clipped according to the clipping condition to generate a clipping-processed quantization level. The clipping condition includes a null clipping condition. The quantization level is clipped to fixed-range represented in n bits for the null clipping condition, where n correspond to 8, 16, or 32. The quantization level may also be clipped within a range from -m to m-1 for the null clipping condition, where m may correspond to 128, 32768, or 2147483648. |
