Abstract

A method of decoding video data using quantized coefficient components and inter prediction information can include extracting quantized coefficient components and inter prediction information from a received bit stream; applying an inverse scan pattern to the quantized coefficient components to generate a quantized block having a size of a transform unit; generating a quantization parameter per quantization unit which is a unit for deriving a quantization parameter and inverse-quantizing the quantized block to generate a transformed block; generating a residual block by inverse-transforming the transformed block; deriving motion information and generating a prediction block; and generating a reconstructed block by using the residual block and the prediction block.

Claims (18)

1. A method of decoding video data using quantized coefficient components and inter prediction information, the method comprising:

extracting quantized coefficient components and inter prediction information from a received bit stream;

applying an inverse scan pattern to the quantized coefficient components to generate a quantized block having a size of a transform unit;

generating a quantization parameter per quantization unit which is a unit for deriving a quantization parameter and inverse-quantizing the quantized block to generate a transformed block;

generating a residual block by inverse-transforming the transformed block;

deriving motion information and generating a prediction block; and

generating a reconstructed block by using the residual block and the prediction block,

wherein when the transform unit is larger than a 4×4 block, the quantized coefficient components are inversely scanned to generate multiple subsets, and the multiple subsets are inversely scanned according to a diagonal scan to generate the quantized block,

wherein the quantization parameter is generated by adding a differential quantization parameter and an average of two available quantization parameters determined among a left quantization parameter, an above quantization parameter and a previous quantization parameter according to an order of the left quantization parameter, the above quantization parameter and the previous quantization parameter, and

wherein, when the left quantization parameter is not available, the quantization parameter is generated by adding an average of the above and the previous quantization parameters and the differential quantization parameter.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the quantized coefficient components are significant flags, coefficient signs and coefficient levels.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein each subset among the multiple subsets is a 4×4 block including 16 transform coefficients.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein a minimum size of the quantization unit is adjusted per picture.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the minimum size of the quantization unit is derived using a parameter specifying the depth of between the minimum size of the quantization unit and an LCU size.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the differential quantization parameter is generated by restoring a bin string indicating an absolute value of the differential quantization parameter and a bin indicating a sign of the differential quantization parameter.

7. The method of claim 1 , wherein when the left and above quantization parameters are unavailable, the previous quantization parameter is set as the quantization parameter predictor.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein each subset among the multiple subsets is generated depending on a subset flag which indicates whether there is non-zero coefficient or not.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein a subset flag, which indicates whether there is a non-zero coefficient or not, is not defined for a first subset and a last subset.
