Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 2:
3. An apparatus for transmitting a video signal, the apparatus comprising:
at least one processor configured to obtain the video signal generated by an image encoding method; and
a transmitter configured to transmit the video signal,
the image encoding method comprising:
determining a slice type of a slice including a current block,
determining, based on the determined slice type being P slice or B slice, whether the current block is coded based on a skip mode, wherein motion vector information, reference picture index information, and residual data for the current block are not encoded into the video signal based on the current block being coded in the skip mode,
selecting motion information of a neighboring block from among neighboring blocks of the current block based on the current block being coded in the skip mode,
determining candidate index information for the current block, the candidate index information indicating the selected motion information from among neighboring blocks of the current block, and
encoding the candidate index information for the current block.
