Image encoding/decoding apparatus and method
Provided is an image encoding/decoding apparatus and method. The image encoding apparatus may include a motion vector prediction unit to perform a prediction with respect to an arbitrary motion vector of a current block within an image, using at least one of vector information of a motion vector corresponding to an adjacent block and vector information of a previous motion vector of the current block, and a differential determination unit to determine differential information of a motion vector of the current block based on the motion vector predicted in the motion vector prediction unit and an actual motion vector of the current block.
1. An image decoding apparatus comprising:
a motion vector prediction unit configured to predict a motion vector of a current block within a cuffent picture using any one or any combination of motion vector information of an adjacent block of the cuffent block, motion vector information of a reference block corresponding to the current block within a reference picture, and motion vector information of an adjacent block of the reference block corresponding to the current block within the reference picture; and
an adder configured to add the predicted motion vector of the current block to differential motion vector information of the current block to calculate a motion vector of the current block;
wherein the motion vector prediction unit comprises a scaling unit configured to scale the motion vector information of the adjacent block of the current block using a distance from a reference picture referred to by the adjacent block of the current block to the current picture and a distance from a reference picture of the current block to the current picture in response to the reference picture referred to by the adjacent block of the current block being different from the reference picture of the current block.
2. The image decoding apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the scaling unit is further configured to scale the motion vector information of the reference block corresponding to the current block within the reference picture or the motion vector information of the adjacent block of the reference block corresponding to the current block within the reference picture using any one or any combination of a distance from a reference picture of the reference block to a picture in which the reference block is located, a distance from a reference picture referred to by the adjacent block of the reference block to a picture in which the adjacent block of the reference block is located, and a distance from the reference picture of the current block to the current picture.
