<p>A noise canceler of the present invention is of the type including an adaptive filter for generating a pseudo noise signal, subtracting the pseudo noise signal from a received signal to thereby output an error signal, and sequentially correcting the filter coefficient of the filter in accordance with the error signal. A second adaptive filter produces a second pseudo noise signal and a second error signal. A first and a second power mean circuit each calculates the signal power of the respective signal. A divider performs division with the resulting two kinds of signal power, so that a signal-to-noise power ratio is estimated. A comparator compares the estimated signal-to-noise power ratio and a delayed version of the same and outputs greater one of them as an extended signal-to-noise power ratio. A step size output circuit corrects, based on the extended signal-to-noise power ratio and reference noise signal power output from a power mean circuit, a step size used to adaptively vary the filter coefficient of the first adaptive filter. <IMAGE></p> |
