Abstract

The present invention discloses a novel scheme of performing frequency domain filtering that does not require a Hilbert transform and which is faster than equivalent FIR filtering schemes. Such a scheme has applications in implementing filters in voice band modems on OSP platforms and in numerous other applications as well. The scheme of the present invention is shown to be superior in term of CPU resource consumption and memory storage space when compared with an equivalent implementation using prior art time domain convolution techniques. The scheme of the present invention permits the delay buffer in the far end echo canceler to store the signal in real format rather than complex format, thus reducing memory requirements by half. The present invention implements a real to analytic fast convolution in the frequency domain which uses zero CPU resources.
