1. A decoding device comprising
a decoding unit configured to decode a plurality of pieces of encoded data on a basis of encoding method information that has been received, received bitstream data including the plurality of pieces of encoded data in which a plurality of segments of a tactile signal has been respectively encoded,
wherein the encoding method information includes information indicating in which encoding method of a plurality of encoding methods the respective segments of the tactile signal have been encoded,
the plurality of encoding methods includes a simple tactile encoding method corresponding to a simple tactile signal related to a beginning segment of the tactile signal,
the plurality of pieces of encoded data includes simple tactile encoded data in which the simple tactile signal has been encoded in the simple tactile encoding method, and
the decoding unit decodes the simple tactile encoded data, in a case where the encoding method information indicates the simple tactile encoding method.
