Abstract

A method of performing an intra prediction coding with respect to a plurality of blocks included in an image frame is provided. The method of performing an intra prediction coding includes confirming whether a neighboring pixel that is referred to in an intra prediction of a block exists in the current frame, if the neighboring pixel referred to in the intra prediction exists, reading the color difference signal value of the pixel referred to in the intra prediction from the current image frame, if at least one neighboring pixel referred to in the intra prediction does not exist, reading the color difference signal value of at least one pixel from the previous image frame and performing the intra prediction with reference to the read color difference signal value of the pixel.
