Abstract
An echo canceling apparatus has two microphones, both receiving an acoustic signal including a near-end speech component and an echo component. A first adaptive filter cancels the echo component in the output of the first microphone, obtaining a first residual signal. A second adaptive filter cancels the echo component in the output of the second microphone, obtaining a second residual signal. The two residual signals are added together with a timing delay compensating for the delay between their near-end speech components. In the resulting sum signal, the near-end speech component is enhanced, while the echo component, and a near-end background noise component, are relatively weakened.
