Abstract

Disclosed herein is a video decoding method for decoding an input bitstream in which each of pictures has been encoded with being split into a plurality of tiles. The method includes decoding partial decoding information included in the input bitstream and determining one or more target tiles to be decoded among the plurality of tiles according to the partial decoding information; and decoding video data corresponding to the one or more target tiles, wherein the partial decoding information includes at least one of first information indicating whether to perform partial decoding and second information indicating an area on which partial decoding is to be performed.

Abstract

The present invention relates a wireless communication method and a wireless communication terminal for supporting a spatial reuse operation of an overlapping basic service set to efficiently use a wireless resource. To this end, provided are a base wireless communication terminal including: a processor; and a communication unit, wherein the processor receives a PHY protocol data unit (PPDU) through the communication unit, determines whether the PPDU contains an intra-BSS frame or contains an inter-BSS frame based on preamble information of the PPDU, and performs either a first operation or a second operation distinct from each other according to a determination result and a wireless communication method using the same.
