Adaptive Echo Cancellation Combined with Delay Estimation

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper proposed an echo canceller to reduce the computational complexity of the long delay echo cancellation. Two adaptive filters were used for constructing this echo canceller. One was designed as a delay estimator, which used down-sampled sub-band signals to estimate the echo delay time. The other was designed as a short-tap filter to subtract the echo from the recorded signal with delay compensation. Experimental results showed that the output signal-to-noise ratio from the proposed canceller with low complexity is similar to that from the conventional canceller based on a long-tap filter.
