A computer-implemented method for automatically optimizing a hybrid active noise cancellation system, the hybrid active noise cancellation system comprising a feedback filter and a feedforward filter, the method comprising optimizing the feedforward filter, thereby optimizing the hybrid active noise cancellation system, wherein optimization of the feedforward filter is dependent on the feedback filter.

Optimization of a hybrid active noise cancellation system

A method and system for improving echo suppression and/or duplexity of handsfree telephone applications is presented. An echo suppression unit for an electronic device comprising a loudspeaker and a microphone is described. The microphone is configured to capture a transmit signal, wherein the transmit signal comprises an echo of a receive signal rendered by the loudspeaker. The echo suppression unit is configured to determine, based on the receive signal, whether the receive signal comprises a first frequency component causing the echo of the receive signal to comprise a distortion component. The distortion component comprises one or more frequencies which are not comprised within the first frequency component. Furthermore, the echo suppression unit is configured to apply a post-filter to the transmit signal, if it is determined that the receive signal comprises the first frequency component. The post-filter is configured to selectively attenuate the distortion component.
