Abstract

A method for encoding mode signals of a target block of M.times.N pixels having a binary value `0` or `255` is provided. If the target block is determined as neither 'all.sub.-- 0' nor 'all.sub.-- 255', the target block is divided into a top field and a bottom field, wherein the top field contains every odd row of the target block to have M/2.times.N pixels and the bottom field contains every even row of the target block to have M/2.times.N pixels. After encoding the top field, the method encodes the bottom field based on the top field to generate modified bottom field-coded data and a modified bottom mode.
