Abstract

Abstract According to a high efficiency coding signal processing apparatus of the present invention, in order to suppress error propagation, effectively correct errors, and reduce a signal deterioration upon repetitive coding processing, a bit rate reduction circuit (53) quantizes a video signal and outputs the resultant signal to low- and high-frequency encoders (71, 72, 75, 76). A first transmission sequence packet circuit (77) outputs low-frequency components at a predetermined period. A second transmission sequence packet circuit (79) sequences and outputs high-frequency components. Since the low-frequency components and the high-frequency components are separately sequenced and transmitted, the low-frequency components are free from the influence of errors caused in the high-frequency components.
