Hi, I read about peak search in a paper document. It performs a cross-correlation of far end signal and normalised near end signal to find peaks in the echo tail. It says that a peak search can be simulated in MATLAB using sliding average . Could u explain what this is or atleast direct me to links where i can learn about snlms,peak search methods and sliding averages.bye. -Mukund Dharmendra Lingaiah <> wrote: Hello Mukund, Where did you read about PEAK SEARCH in subband nLMS Algorithm ???

Hello Mukund, Where did you read about PEAK SEARCH in subband nLMS Algorithm ??? If you can send me this link.....Probably, I can give you some idea... since I am working on nLMS Algorithm and Echo Cancellation.

Hello Muk, Everybody gets to read something in some paper doc .... right ??? I just wanted to know which paper it is ...... !!!! Regarding your query for Subband-nLMS ...you can search www.researchindex.com for papers. Peak search methods vary by algorithm implementation ...........one can use ....... * Correlation * BandStop Filtering * Demodulation to DC (0 Hz).....etc...... Although no paper gives you exact theory or implementation aspects for PEAK SEARCH Methods for usage in ECHO CANCELLATION. you have to do a little bit of R&D work .....trying to implement various algos as suggested above and you choose the best method for your application .........since I do not know your end application Now for the real stuff......... You can find the peaks of any signal using CROSS-CORRELATION ....... as you have suggested. Since you suggest MATLAB Simulation........you are in Luck....... I have done this stuff ............. All you have to do is generate two signals......... 1. The REFERENSE SIGNAL ( what you call FAR-END SIGNAL ) 2. The NEAR END SIGNAL ( what you call normalised NEAR-END SIGNAL ). After this, Use 'xcorr' command to correlate the two signals ............ Just check for unusual BEHAVIOUR of the CROSS-CORRELATED Signal ........... and you have solved your problem.
