Abstract

Claims (27)

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

obtaining image information;

performing a picture management process for pictures of a Decoded Picture Buffer (DPB) based on the image information; and

decoding a current picture based on the pictures,

wherein the image information includes an Output Layer Set (OLS) DPB parameter index for a target OLS,

wherein the picture management process is performed based on DPB parameter information for the target OLS derived based on the OLS DPB parameter index,

wherein the DPB parameter information for the target OLS includes information on DPB size, information on maximum picture reorder number of the DPB for the target OLS and information on maximum latency of the DPB,

wherein the picture management process includes a bumping process,

wherein the bumping process is performed based on comparison of a number of the picture in the DPB and a value of the information on DPB size plus 1,

wherein the DPB parameter information for the target OLS is included in a Video Parameter Set (VPS) syntax only when the target OLS is a multi-layer OLS which includes at least two layers.

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

performing a picture management process for pictures of a Decoded Picture Buffer (DPB) based on DPB parameter information for a target Output Layer Set (OLS);

decoding a current picture based on the pictures; and

encoding image information,

wherein the image information includes the DPB parameter information for the target OLS and an OLS DPB parameter index for the target OLS,

wherein the DPB parameter information for the target OLS includes information on DPB size, information on maximum picture reorder number of the DPB for the target OLS and information on maximum latency of the DPB,

wherein the picture management process includes a bumping process,

wherein the bumping process is performed based on comparison of a number of the picture in the DPB and a value of the information on DPB size plus 1,

wherein the DPB parameter information for the target OLS is encoded into a Video Parameter Set (VPS) syntax only when the target OLS is a multi-layer OLS which includes at least two layers.

3 . A transmitting method of data for an image, the method comprising:

generating an encoded bitstream of image information including Decoded Picture Buffer (DPB) parameter information and an Output Layer Set (OLS) DPB parameter index for a target OLS; and

transmitting the data including the encoded bitstream of the image information including the DPB parameter information and the OLS DPB parameter index for the target OLS,

wherein a picture management process for pictures of the DPB is performed based on the DPB parameter information for the target OLS,

wherein the DPB parameter information for the target OLS includes information on DPB size, information on maximum picture reorder number of the DPB for the target OLS and information on maximum latency of the DPB,

wherein the picture management process includes a bumping process,

wherein the bumping process is performed based on comparison of a number of the picture in the DPB and a value of the information on DPB size plus 1,

wherein the DPB parameter information for the target OLS is encoded into a Video Parameter Set (VPS) syntax only when the target OLS is a multi-layer OLS which includes at least two layers.
