Abstract
A system and method for echo cancellation in a communication system having a digital echo canceller and an analog echo canceller for analog reduction of cross coupling echo components in an analog output signal when in analog form before digital processing by the digital echo canceller. An analog cancellation signal is generated which is substantially the same as the acoustic coupling echo component in the analog output signal before digital processing by the digital echo canceller. The analog echo cancellation signal is combined with the analog output signal to reduce the cross coupling echo component before digital processing by the digital echo canceller.
