Original Abstract Submitted

the present invention relates to an image encoding and decoding technique, and more particularly, to an image encoder and decoder using unidirectional prediction. the image encoder includes a dividing unit to divide a macro block into a plurality of sub-blocks, a unidirectional application determining unit to determine whether an identical prediction mode is applied to each of the plurality of sub-blocks, and a prediction mode determining unit to determine a prediction mode with respect to each of the plurality of sub-blocks based on a determined result of the unidirectional application determining unit.
