METHOD AND THE DEVICE OF SCALABLE CODING OF VIDEO DATA

摘要

A method for scalable encoding of video data and an apparatus thereof are provided to override an existing weight value given in a slice unit with a greater weight when the reference block of an enhancement layer is generated if the video data of a macro block of a base layer is in a skip mode, thereby improving efficiency of the scalable video encoding. A method for scalable encoding of video data comprises the following steps of: generating a reference block by using a weight set for a corresponding block when the video data of a macro block can be predicted from the video data of reference pictures for the video data of the macro block(220); and generating the reference block by using a weight given to a slice belonging to a current frame when the video data of the macro block can not be predicted from the video data of the reference pictures.
