Abstract
A feedback suppression system for reducing acoustic feedback may include a controller configured to buffer a series of incoming digital sample signals to provide a plurality of buffered signals, the incoming digital sample signal being indicative of an audio input signal that includes audio data and acoustic feedback, determine a complex spectrum of the plurality of buffered signals, determine a magnitude squared spectrum from the complex spectrum, identify at least one peak in the magnitude squared spectrum, identify a frequency of the at least one identified peak using a phase enhanced frequency estimate, and set a notch filter at the identified frequency to eliminate the acoustic feedback of the audio input signal.
