Abstract
A coding device and method, a decoding device and method, and a coding/decoding system including the coding device and the decoding device are provided. The coding device includes a predictive value data generator, a predictive error data generator, a variable-length coded data generator that codes the predictive error data to sequentially generate variable-length coded data, in which a code length is variable and equal to or shorter than a set maximum length, and a coding controller. The coding controller sequentially calculates an accumulated value by accumulating a difference between the code length of the variable-length coded data and a target code length, and sequentially sets the maximum code length based on the accumulated value and the number coding time performed by the coder such that the accumulated value is zero or lower.
