Abstract
A system and method for acoustic echo cancellation is provided. Embodiments may include receiving, at one or more microphones, an audio reference signal from an audio speaker. Embodiments may also include filtering the audio reference signal using one or more adaptive audio filters. Embodiments may further include analyzing a level of signal energy of the audio reference signal with regard to time, frequency and audio channel to identify at least one maximum error contribution point. Embodiments may also include updating the one or more adaptive audio filters based upon, at least in part, the analyzed audio reference signal.
