Generally, the echo canceller is implemented on the IP telephony gateway which needs to perform concurrently multi-channel echo cancellation and voice compression. Hence, the most key technique to design the echo canceller is to reduce greatly the computational requirement. For this reason a number of innovative features to implement a fast echo canceller are presented. The key components of this canceller include: the separation of adaptive and cancel filters, non-real-time adaptation and real-time cancellation, sharing VAD algorithms with the speech codec, the incorporation of delay indexing with zero coefficients, and windowing the adaptive filter coefficients to reduce the cost of DSP during the cancellation. Finally, the performance of the echo canceller is summarized; the results of evaluation show that the performance gains for echo cancellation are significant.展开更多

The algorithm does not preprocess input signals, so it does not degrade the quality of the speech. However, a lot of computer simulation results show that ELMS algorithm has a bad performance. The ELMS algorithm is analyzed firstly, then a new algorithm is presented by modifying the block matrix used in ELMS algorithm to approximate input signals self-correlation matrix. The computer simulation results indicate that the improved algorithm has a better behavior than the ELMS algorithm.展开更多

In this paper we adopt a new double-talk detection algorithm based onl 2 norm to detect the existence of near-end speech in an acoustic echo canceller. We analyze this algorithm from the point of view of functional analysis and point out that the proposed double-talk detection algorithm has the same performance as the classic one in a finite Banach space.

Data echo canceller is extensively used in the DSL and HDSL systems to realize full duplex transmission on twisted cable. In such systems, 2B1Q line code is adopted. Therefore, symbol rate is decreased and digital transmission systems get longer reach. In this paper, a performance evaluation method of the echo canceller is proposed based on an autocorrelation matrix of 2B1Q line code. Using this method, the formula of ratio of data signal to echo residual signal is obtained. According to the formula, the ratio of data signal to echo noise depends on FIR filter tap, convergence factor, adaptive algorithm and the correlation matrix of the line code. Computer simulation is carried out to verify theoretical analysis. The simulation results coincided with the theoretical formula in the process estimating the ratio of signal to noise.展开更多

Voice state detection is an essential part in echo cancellation. It mainly comprises two parts: double talk detection(DTD) and voice activity detection(VAD). DTD is used to detect doubletalk and prevent filter divergence in the presence of near-end speech, and VAD is used to determine the near-end voice activity and output silence indicator when near-end is silent. However, DTD straightforwardly proceeded may mistakenly declare double talk under double silent condition, coefficients update under the far-end silence condition may lead to filter divergence, and current VAD algorithms may misjudge the residual echo from the near end to be far-end voice. Therefore, a voice detection algorithm combining DTD and far-end VAD is proposed. DTD is implemented when VAD declares far-end speech, filtering and coefficients update will be halted when VAD declares far-end silence, and the far-end VAD adopted is multi-feature VAD based on short-time energy and correlation. The new algorithm can improve the accuracy of DTD, prevent filter divergence, and exclude the circumstance that far-end signal only contains residual echo from near end. Actual test results show that the voice state decision of the new algorithm is accurate, and the performance of echo cancellation is improved.展开更多
