  • Publication number: 20230118101
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosure provide methods and devices for decoding video signals using inter prediction. According to an embodiment of the disclosure, a method for processing a video signal comprises constructing a reference picture list of a current picture in the video signal and performing a prediction for a current picture by using the reference picture list, wherein constructing the reference picture list comprising, if a first entry of the reference picture list corresponds to a short-term reference picture (STRP), obtaining a picture order count (POC) difference between a picture related to the first entry and another picture, and if a second entry of the reference picture list corresponds to a long-term reference picture (LTRP), obtaining a POC modulo value of a picture related to the second entry. A reference picture list for identifying a picture may be generated in a simplified and effective manner.
