A method is provided for the quantization of a coefficient. The method comprises: supplying a coefficient K; supplying a quantization parameter (QP); forming a quantization value (L) from the coefficient K using a mantissa portion (Am(QP)) and an exponential portion (x Ac(QP) ). Typically, the value of x is 2. In some aspects of the method, forming a quantization value (L) from the coefficient K included L = K* A(QP) = K* Am(QP)*(2 Ac(QP) ). In other aspects, the method further comprises: normalizing the quantization value by 2 N as follows: Ln = L/2 N = K*Am(QP)/2 (N-Ac(QP) ). In some aspects, forming a quantization value includes forming a set of recursive quantization factors with a period P, where A(QP+P)=A(QP)/x. Forming recursive quantization factors includes forming recursive mantissa factors, where Am(QP)=Am(QP mod P), and forming recursive exponential factors, where Ae(QP) = Ae(QP mod P) - QP/P.
