Abstract
A method of canceling echoes in a telecommunications system wherein an exchange of information takes place between a local subscriber and a subscriber at the remote end of a transmission link and at least one subscriber is assigned an echo canceller, the parameters of which are set as a function of an echo delay time (i). The signs of the signal x(t) transmitted by a subscriber and the signal y(t) received by the subscriber can be determined at equidistant time intervals (T ) so that sign sequences arise which are stored and compared with one another, and in the event of a direct correspondence or a correspondence as a result of an inversion of the sign sequences of the received signal y(t) and of the transmitted signal x(t) the received signal y(t) is detected as an echo and the echo delay time (i) is calculated.
