Abstract

An image encoding/decoding method is disclosed. An image decoding method of the present invention may comprise deriving an intra-prediction mode of a current block by using an intra-prediction mode of a neighbor block adjacent to the current block, configuring a reference sample of the current block, and performing intra-prediction on the current block by using the intra-prediction mode and the reference sample, wherein when the intra-prediction mode of the neighbor block is unavailable, the intra-prediction mode of the neighbor block may be replaced with a planar mode.

Claims (21)

1. An image decoding method performed by an image decoding apparatus, the image decoding method comprising:

determining an intra prediction mode of a current block;

determining a reference sample line based on whether a top boundary of the current block is located at a top boundary of a coding tree unit;

determining reference samples of the reference sample line based on the intra prediction mode and a ratio of a width and a height of the current block; and

generating a prediction block of the current block by performing intra prediction on the current block using the intra prediction mode and the reference samples,

wherein, in case of the top boundary of the current block not being located at the top boundary of the coding tree unit, the reference sample line is determined based on a reference sample line index specifying the reference sample line among a plurality of reference sample lines, the reference sample line index being signaled from a bitstream, and

wherein, in case of the top boundary of the current block being located at the top boundary of the coding tree unit, the reference sample line is determined without the reference sample line index.

2. An image encoding method performed by an image encoding apparatus, the image encoding method comprising:

determining an intra prediction mode of a current block;

determining a reference sample line based on whether a top boundary of the current block is located at a top boundary of a coding tree unit;

determining reference samples of the reference sample line based on the intra prediction mode and a ratio of a width and a height of the current block; and

generating a prediction block of the current block by performing intra prediction on the current block using the intra prediction mode and the reference samples,

wherein, in case of the top boundary of the current block being located at the top boundary of the coding tree unit, a reference sample line index specifying the reference sample line among a plurality of reference sample lines is encoded into a bitstream, and

wherein, in case of the top boundary of the current block not being located at the top boundary of the coding tree unit, the reference sample line index is not encoded into the bitstream.

3. A method of transmitting a bitstream generated by an encoding method, the encoding method comprising:

determining an intra prediction mode of a current block;

determining a reference sample line based on whether a top boundary of the current block is located at a top boundary of a coding tree unit;

determining reference samples of the reference sample line based on the intra prediction mode and a ratio of a width and a height of the current block; and

generating a prediction block of the current block by performing intra prediction on the current block using the intra prediction mode and the reference samples,

wherein, in case of the top boundary of the current block being located at the top boundary of the coding tree unit, a reference sample line index specifying the reference sample line among a plurality of reference sample lines is encoded into the bitstream, and

wherein, in case of the top boundary of the current block not being located at the top boundary of the coding tree unit, the reference sample line index is not encoded into the bitstream.
