Abstract
A method for canceling feedback in an acoustic system including a microphone, a signal path, a speaker and means for detecting presence of feedback between the speaker and the microphone, the method including providing an LMS algorithm for processing the signal; where the LMS algorithm operates with a predetermined adaptation speed when feedback is not present; where the LMS algorithm operates an adaptation speed faster than the predetermined adaptation speed when feedback is present, and where the means for detecting the presence of feedback is used to control the adaptation speed selection o the LMS algorithm, where the feedback detection means comprises bandwidth detection means for determining the presence of a feedback signal.
