Original Abstract Submitted

a deblocking filtering method, a boundary strength (bs) deriving method, and encoding/decoding method and apparatus using the methods are provided. the bs deriving method includes the steps of: deriving a boundary of a deblocking filtering unit block which is a unit block on which deblocking filtering is performed; and setting a bs for each bs setting unit block in the deblocking filtering unit block. here, the step of setting the bs includes setting a bs value of a target boundary corresponding to the boundary of the deblocking filtering unit block as the bs setting unit block.
