Abstract

In an inter-frame predictive encoding system, reference frames are set. The reference frames are separated at equal intervals. The reference frames are selected from successively inputted frames of a video signal. Each of the reference frames is encoded. A prediction signal for a dependent frame between the reference frames is generated on the basis of a signal of the reference frames which precedes and follows the dependent frame respectively. A signal of the dependent frame is generated on the basis of the prediction signal corresponding thereto. An error of the predicting of the signal of the dependent frame is encoded.
