Real-Time DSP Implementation of an Acoustic-Echo-Canceller with a Delay-Sum Beamformer
By Todd Goldfinger
Abstract:
Traditional telephony uses only a single receiver for speech acquisition. If the
speaker is standing away from the telephone, the signal will be weak and there will
be interference sources from room reverberation. In addition, there is acoustic echo
coming from the loudspeaker, which further interferes with the signal of interest. This
research investigated the combination of common solutions to these problems. Electronic
beamforming steered an array of microphones within software to enhance the
signal power. Echo cancellation removed the echo coming from the loudspeaker. In
combination these processing techniques can greatly enhance user experience.
