1. A method for suppressing blocking artifacts in an encoder comprising the steps of:

  • dividing original frame data into a size of predetermined blocks;

    compressing the data through a data transformation and a quantization process on a per unit block basis;

    decompressing and restoring the compressed data on a per unit frame basis;

    delaying the original frame data for a predetermined period of time;

    measuring a degree of blocking artifact by comparing the restored frame data with the delayed original frame data; and

    generating a post-processing parameter which represents the degree of blocking artifact.
