<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To properly perform decoding processing even if the event of an error in important information such as header information occurs by including error robustness in a bit stream itself in a system for compression-encoding and transmitting an image or the like. <P>SOLUTION: An encoding and multiplexing apparatus includes a means for partitioning a plurality of types of compressed code streamns obtained by compression-coding an input signal for each coding unit, a means for generating a multiplexed unit code stream 135A by adding stuffing bits, for each partitioning unit, to the partitioned compressed code stream, and a means for generating a multiplexed code stream by multiplexing the multiplexed unit code stream 135A. In such a case, the multiplexed unit code stream has a length that is an integer multiple of a predetermined length. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
