Inter-frame (P-frame) Coding is used in video coding (compression). It is part of Group of Pictures with Inter-frame.

The term intra frame coding refers to the fact that the various lossless and lossy compression techniques are performed relative to information that is contained only within the current frame, and not relative to any other frame in the video sequence. In other words, no temporal processing is performed outside of the current picture or frame. This mode will be described first because it is simpler, and because non-intra coding techniques are extensions to these basics. Figure 1 shows a block diagram of a basic video encoder for intra frames only. It turns out that this block diagram is very similar to that of a JPEG still image video encoder, with only slight implementation detail differences.
