Claim 8:
9. An electronic device for decoding a matrix of encoded sub-aperture images obtained from data acquired by a plenoptic camera, the electronic device comprising a processor and at least one memory unit coupled to the processor, the processor being configured to:
decode several reference image views based on metadata information;
decode the encoded sub-aperture images based on several decoded reference image views, delivering a first matrix of sub-aperture images; and
obtain a second matrix of sub-aperture images as a function of the first matrix of sub-aperture images and metadata comprising information data related to a combination of sub-aperture images included in the first matrix of sub-aperture images, wherein the combination uses an invertible mixing matrix for combining sub-aperture images included in the first matrix.
