The offset values of the indices (1, 2, . . . , K) allocated to the respective bands may be transmitted from the encoder to the decoder. The indices of the offset values for the side bands to which the band offset is not applied may be set to 0 and the offset for the chroma pixels may not be indicated. An index having a value of 0 may indicate that the band offset should not be applied thereto, or may indicate that the offset value of the band offset is 0.
Referring to
The offset values of the indices (1, 2, . . . , K/2, K/2+1, . . . , K) allocated to the respective bands may be transmitted from the encoder to the decoder. The indices of the offset values for the central bands to which the band offset is not applied may be set to 0 and the offset for the chroma pixels may not be indicated. An index having a value of 0 may indicate that the band offset should not be applied thereto, or may indicate that the offset value of the band offset is 0.
