Abstract
The invention relates to a method of encoding an image divided into non-overlapping macroblocks themselves divided into non-overlapping blocks of N by N pixels into a binary stream. It comprises the steps of: —transforming each of the block into a transformed block of coefficients comprising one low frequency coefficient and N2-1 coefficients, called high frequency coefficients, of higher frequencies than the low frequency; —quantizing each coefficient of each of the transformed blocks with a quantizing parameter; —encoding the quantized coefficients into a binary stream. According to the invention, the low frequency coefficients of the transformed blocks are quantized with a same quantizing parameter, called first quantizing parameter.
