Abstract

A method and apparatus for handling both echo cancellation and noise in a given space using a single adaptive filter. The proposed method utilizes just a single adaptive filter and without any control logic, the system is capable of handling both the AEC and the noise in a given space. The technology as proposed and claimed herein proposes using a single adaptive filter to cancel referenced noise AEC and unreferenced noise ANC in a given physical space using a beamformer. By adding the far end reference and a beam pointed dynamically on the noise source in the given physical space this can be achieved. This invention also reduces the processing load and memory.
