METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ACOUSTIC ECHO CONTROL

摘要

Embodiments of method and apparatus for acoustic echo control are described. According to the method, an echo energy-based doubletalk detection is performed to determine whether there is a doubletalk in a microphone signal with reference to a loudspeaker signal. A spectral similarity between spectra of the microphone signal and the loudspeaker signal is calculated. It is determined that there is no doubletalk in the microphone signal if the spectral similarity is higher than a threshold level. Adaption of an adaptive filter for applying acoustic echo cancellation or acoustic echo suppression on the microphone signal is enabled if it is determined that there is no doubletalk in the microphone signal through the echo energy-based doubletalk detection, or there is no doubletalk through the spectral similarity-based doubletalk detection.
