Abstract

A moving picture coding method includes: coding a coding target block using a motion vector; generating motion vector predictors; and coding the motion vector using one of the motion vector predictors generated in the generating of the motion vector predictors. In the generating of the motion vector predictors, a replacement vector which replaces a temporal motion vector predictor is added to the motion vector predictors when it is impossible to obtain the temporal motion vector predictor from a block which is included in a coded picture different from the coding target picture and corresponds to the coding target block.

Claims (6)

1. An integrated circuit for controlling a process performed at a terminal apparatus, the process comprising:

obtaining a temporal motion vector enable flag which indicates whether or not using a temporal motion vector predictor is enabled, the temporal motion vector predictor being from a block which is included in a decoded picture different from a decoding target picture and which corresponds to a decoding target block included in the decoding target picture;

generating a plurality of motion vector predictors;

decoding a motion vector using one of the plurality of motion vector predictors generated in the generating; and

decoding the decoding target block using the motion vector decoded in the decoding of the motion vector,

wherein, in the generating, a motion vector having a motion quantity of 0 is generated when the temporal motion vector enable flag indicates that using the temporal motion vector predictor is not enabled, the motion vector being included, as a replacement vector which replaces the temporal motion vector predictor, in the plurality of motion vector predictors.
