Abstract

Provided is an image decoding method performed by a decoding apparatus including deriving a temporary reference motion vector for a current block included in a current picture, deriving a reference motion vector for the current block by applying clipping to the temporary reference motion vector, deriving a motion vector for the current block based on the reference motion vector, deriving a predicted block for the current block based on the motion vector for the current block, and generating a reconstructed picture for the current picture based on the predicted block for the current block, wherein a number of bits of a binary code representing the reference motion vector is less than a number of bits of a binary code representing the temporary reference motion vector.
