摘要

An ADRC circuit 3 generates spatial classes with SD data extracted by an area extracting circuit 2. A moving class determining circuit 5 generates a moving class with SD data extracted by an area extracting circuit 4. A class code generating circuit 6 generates a class code with the spatial class and the moving class. A tap decreasing ROM 7 supplies additional code data for each class code to a tap decreasing code 10. The additional code data is used to decrease taps of SD data. The tap decreasing circuit 10 decreases the SD data extracted by an area extracting circuit 9. A prediction calculating circuit 11 receives coefficient data corresponding to the class code from a ROM table 8 and obtains HD data with the decreased SD data corresponding to a linear prediction equation.
