Abstract
Abstract In a high efficiency coding apparatus for performing plural different types of orthogonal transformation, by reordering the signals after orthogonal transformation and transforming into signals of same statistic characteristics, distortion of coding efficiency due to mismatching of the characteristics of coding device is reduced even if the output of the orthogonally transformed signal is coded by one fixed coding device.
