Abstract

Method for echo control using adaptive polynomial filters in sub-band domain starts with loudspeaker that is configured to be driven by a reference signal outputting a loudspeaker signal. Microphone receives at least one of: a near-end speaker signal, ambient noise signal, or the loudspeaker signal and generates a microphone signal. Adaptive polynomial filters in sub-band domain included in adaptive echo canceller (AEC) are configured to adaptively filter representation of the reference signal in a plurality of channels in a sub-band domain based on a clean signal to generate the echo estimate. Echo suppressor is configured to remove an echo estimate from the microphone signal to generate the clean signal. Other embodiments are described.
