Abstract
A device for acoustic echo cancellation includes a modulator, a speaker, a microphone, a demodulator, and an adaptive filter. The modulator duplicates a far-end signal to a frequency range that is higher than the far-end signal to be a first frequency-shifted signal and generates a modulated signal according to the far-end signal and the first frequency-shifted signal. The speaker generates a sound signal according to the modulated signal. The microphone generates a microphone signal according to a near-end signal and an echo signal. The echo signal is a convolution of the sound signal with a room impulse response. The demodulator extracts a demodulated signal and an echo-reference signal from the microphone signal. The adaptive filter generates a recovered signal to recover the near-end signal according to the demodulated signal and the echo-reference signal.
