Abstract: A system for estimating delay between a far-end signal and an echo of the far-end signal in a microphone signal, the system comprising: a buffer configured to store a time-series of far-end samples representing the far-end signal; a first delay estimator configured to form a first estimate of the delay in respect of a speech frame representing speech in the microphone signal; a second delay estimator configured to form a second estimate of the delay for the speech frame by operating a first set of one or more filters on far-end samples selected from the buffer in dependence on an operating delay; a second set of one or more filters for operation on far-end samples; and a controller configured to, in response to a determination that the first estimate of the delay for the speech frame differs from the operating delay for a previous frame by at least a predefined length of time, cause the one or more filters of the second set to operate on far-end samples selected from the buffer according to the first estimate of the delay and, if in respect of one or more speech frames a measure of convergence of the second set of filters exceeds a measure of convergence of the first set of filters by at least a first predefined threshold, update the operating delay using the first estimate of the delay.

Abstract: Systems and techniques relating to channel degradation detection for communication systems are described. A described system includes an interface to transmit signals and receive signals via a channel that includes a cable; an echo canceller coupled with the interface, the echo canceller to perform echo cancellation based on echo tap values to remove portions of the transmitted signals that appear as echoes within the received signals; an equalizer coupled with the interface, the equalizer to perform signal equalization based on equalizer tap values, the equalizer tap values being determined based on at least a portion of the received signals to adjust an impulse response of the channel and reduce inter-symbol interference within the received signals; and circuitry configured to determine a return loss channel quality indicator of the channel based on the echo tap values, determine an insertion loss channel quality indicator of the channel based on the equalizer tap values, or both.

Abstract: A system and method for identifying minor echoes present in an input signal in the situation where a set of major echoes has already been identified from the input signal. The method includes: computing a spectrum F corresponding to a sum of the major echoes; computing a weighted power spectrum SM of the spectrum F; subtracting the weighted power spectrum SM from a weighted power spectrum PIN of the input signal to obtain a difference spectrum; performing a stabilized division of the difference spectrum by a conjugate of the spectrum F to obtain an intermediate spectrum; computing an inverse transform of the intermediate spectrum to obtain a time-domain signal; and estimating parameters one or more of the minor echoes from the time-domain signal. The echo parameters are usable to remove at least a portion of the one or more estimated minor echoes from the input signal.

Abstract: The spirit of the present invention is to vary the step size parameter in accordance with the error signal and the output acoustic signal, wherein the filter is easy to implement, nonparametric VSS-NLMS algorithm which employs the mean-square error and the estimated system noise power to control the step-size update. The new nonparametric VSS-NLMS algorithm has been shown to perform with fast convergence rate, good tracking, and low mis-adjustment. In comparison with existing VSS-NLMS algorithms, the proposed algorithm has demonstrated consistently superior performance both in convergence and for final error level relative to published algorithms in application on both simulated data and real speech data.

Abstract: A receiver (e.g., for a 10G fiber communications link) includes an interleaved ADC coupled to a multi-channel equalizer that can provide different equalization for different ADC channels within the interleaved ADC. That is, the multi-channel equalizer can compensate for channel-dependent impairments. In one approach, the multi-channel equalizer is a feedforward equalizer (FFE) coupled to a Viterbi decoder, for example a sliding block Viterbi decoder (SBVD); and the FFE and/or the channel estimator for the Viterbi decoder are adapted using the LMS algorithm.

Abstract: An apparatus having a first circuit and a second circuit is disclosed. The first circuit is configured to generate a first intermediate signal by expanding a first input signal subjected to a quantization. The second circuit is configured to generate a second intermediate signal based on a second input signal. The second intermediate signal approximates an echo in the first input signal caused by the second input signal. The second circuit is also configured to generate a third intermediate signal by companding the second intermediate signal to compensate the quantization of the first input signal.

Abstract: An echo canceller for an IP network includes an adaptive filter that models the echo path and generates an estimate of the echo signal from a receiving input signal. The echo canceller subtracts the estimate of the echo signal from a sending input signal to generate a sending output signal with reduced echo. Variation in the echo delay is detected. A delay circuit compensates for the changes in the echo delay to provide proper time-alignment between the estimate of the echo signal and the sending input signal so that the echo signal will be more effectively cancelled.
