<p>Echo cancellation to remove, from a locally received data communication signal, an echo signal component having a changing phase difference relative to the phase of a locally transmitted data communication signal, said locally transmitted communication signal being generated by modulating a carrier based on sequences of complex data signal points, is accomplished by correcting the phase of an input sequence of complex samples of the modulated carrier based on the changing phase difference to generate complex phase corrected samples, and generating a real-valued simulation of the echo signal based on the complex, phase corrected samples. Phase difference is estimated between two signals based on samples of the real signal component of one of the signals, and the real component of the difference between the signals; successive estimates of the phase difference are generated based on successive applications of an approximate Hilbert transform to samples of each of the real signal component of one of the signals, and to the samples of the real component of the difference between the signals, each application of the Hilbert transform being limited to two of the samples. A succession of sample values are averaged and the result of the averaging is scaled in accordance with a variable scaling factor; the succession of sample values is accumulated as a cumulative sample value, and an output indicative of the result is provided by comparing the cumulative sample value with a threshold that is based on the variable scaling factor.</p> |
