Motion vector decoding apparatus and method for converting a variable length of a motion vector into an original one using a difference component of the motion vector. The motion vector decoding apparatus comprises an X-axis motion vector component decoder for decoding an X-axis component of the motion vector in response to first and second X-axis motion vector difference components, and a Y-axis motion vector component decoder for decoding a Y-axis component of the motion vector in response to first and second Y-axis motion vector difference components. According to the present invention, a compressed video signal can be restored rapidly and accurately in a variable length decoder. |
