Abstract
Transform unit (TU) partition method and apparatus depending on the coding unit (CU) partition and prediction unit (PU) partition are disclosed. In one embodiment, the maximum TU size is restricted to the minimum of PU width and height, except for a 2N×2N coding unit with the 2N×2N partition type. In another embodiment, the maximum TU size equals to maximum of PU width and height, and the minimum TU size equals to minimum of the PU width and height, except for a 2N×2N coding unit with the 2N×2N partition type. In yet another embodiment, the maximum TU size is equal to the maximum of PU width and height, and the minimum TU size is equal to the minimum of PU width and height except for a 2N×2N CU with 2N×2N partition type.
