Abstract
Apparatus and a technique for echo cancellation is described in which the real and imaginary parts of an echo replica signal can evolve independently of each other. By removing the coupling heretofore found in cross coupled echo canceller structures, the echo replica obtained in conjunction with carrier-phase tracking circuitry can be a more exact duplicate of the real and imaginary components of a received echo containing signal. The echo canceller may include a plurality of subcancellers, each including at least four adaptive filters. Alternatively the filters within each subcanceller can be implemented by a suitably programmed digital signal processor.
