Abstract

An interframe motion predicting method for prediction of the motion in a bidirectionally predictive-coded frame from an intra-coded frame and a predictive-coded frame, predicts the motion in another bidirectionally predictive-coded frame from the preceding bidirectionally predictive-coded frame and the predictive-coded frame. A picture signal coding apparatus executes orthogonal transformation of a picture signal, then quantizes the transformed data, and codes the data thus quantized. The apparatus includes a local decoder for the quantized data; first and second memories for storing the decoded picture data of an intra-coded or bidirectionally predictive-coded frame, and a predictive-coded frame respectively; a predictive picture generator for generating a predictive picture of a second bidirectionally predictive-coded frame; and a difference calculator for calculating the difference between the predictive picture and the original picture signal corresponding thereto. A picture signal decoding apparatus includes inverse multiplexer for separating the coded data into interframe predictive error data and vector coded data; a decoder for generating decoded picture data on the basis of such error data; first and second memories for storing the decoded picture data of the intra-coded frame and the predictive-coded frame respectively; a predictive picture generator for generating a predicted picture of a second bidirectionally predictive-coded frame; and a frame switching selector for selectively rearranging the decoded picture data in the order of reproduction.
