MOTION PREDICTION METHOD

A motion prediction method is provided. The method has the following steps of: determining a plurality of candidate units corresponding to a current unit of a current frame; obtaining a plurality of motion vectors of the candidate units; calculating a plurality of temporal scaling factors of the candidate units according to a plurality of temporal distances between a plurality of reference frames of the motion vectors and the current frame; scaling the motion vectors of the candidate units according to the temporal scaling factors to obtain a plurality of scaled motion vectors; and selecting a motion vector predictor for motion prediction of the current unit from the candidate units according to the scaled motion vectors.
