A gummy starch is prepared by conmbining a starch with a saccharide and subsequently heating up the mixture. The gummy starch consists essentially of a water insoluble part with a chewable property and good dispersibility in oils and fats. A process for preparation of a gummy starch comprises the steps of combining a starch with a saccharide and heating up the mixture at such a temperature for such a time as to cause the saccharide to be caramelized to pick up water insoluble part. A chewable food raw material consists essentially of a gummy starch prepared by combining a starch with a saccharide and subsequently heating up the mixture. An oil and fat dispersant consists essentially of a gummy starch prepared by combining a starch with a saccharide and subsequently heating up the mixture.

In a method and apparatus for double-talk detection in an echo canceller that uses an adaptive digital filter to estimate, from a received signal and a transmitted signal to which an echo signal of the received signal is added, the characteristics of an echo path and generate a simulated echo signal, and subtracts this echo replica from the transmitted signal in order to transmit a residual signal from which the echo signal has been removed, and which during the course of this operation detects the double-talk state according to a double-talk detection threshold and inhibits the estimation of adaptive digital filter; adaptive estimation and the double-talk detection threshold are controlled in accordance with the state of system e.g., whether it is in the single-talk state, whether the echo signal is active or idle, whether there are fluctuations in the echo path, or whether howling is taking place.

In a spread communications systems, a filter is inserted in a transmitter and a receiver, respectively. The filter in the transmitter is an FIR filter and the filter in the receiver has a characteristic inverse to that of the FIR filter.

Spread spectrum communications system

In an adaptive digital filter, the inputs to the variable-coefficient scalers of an adaptive digital filter are mutually orthogonal and their mean square values are equal. As a result, the rate of convergence of the variable coefficients of the variable-coefficient scalers is rapid. The adaptive filter is suitable for use in echo cancelers.
