Abstract
Robust acoustic echo cancellation in a single-channel integrated audio and intercom system is provided by adapting echo cancellation filters in accordance with an optimized autocorrelation matrix. This is carried out in a modified FIR LMS filter in which the adaptation regressor signal is formed by a combination of one or more of the received voice signal, the received audio signal, and/or a random noise signal. In a SISO system, it is usually desirable to shelter the regressor signal from tonal components such as voice signals. In a multiple-channel system, it is usually desirable to shelter regressor signals for a particular channel from acoustic components that are likely to be correlated to acoustic components in other parts of the system and are likely to affect that particular channel. In multi-channel applications, it is therefore usually desirable to shelter regressor signals from audio signals.
