Abstract
A method for coding an image comprising a plurality of pixels. For at least one pixel of the plurality, a differential value is calculated from a value of the pixel and at least one surrounding pixel value, which occurs in the proximity of the pixel in the image. A quantizer is selected from a plurality of quantizers, and the differential value is assigned to a quantizer value by means of the selected quantizer. The quantizer value is assigned to a bit sequence by means of a coding. Thereby, the coding is based on an averaging of incidences of values the individual quantizers of the plurality can assume for pixel value differences respectively. Furthermore, a method is provided for transmitting an image comprising of a plurality of pixels to a receiver, an apparatus for coding an image comprising of a plurality of pixels and a system for transmitting image data.
