From experience you should not count on echo cancellation like you expect from the LEC numbers you may be familiar with. Measure the microphone noise floor and make sure that your residual error is not dominated by it. It is VERY, VERY hard to reach 30dB from just the AEC. Issues: dynamic range (immediate echo vs local talker levels), dynamic echo path, noise floor, lack of tail length, noise floor of the sub-band filters (if used) etc. Regards, Dave -----Original Message----- From: andrew_xiang [mailto:] Sent: Friday, September 12, 2003 10:58 AM To: Subject: [echocancel] acoustic echo cacellation performance? Anyone implemented a system that get you 30dB of reduction for AEC? In my system, I only get 4X for voice signal. I will give it a try with white noise. But seems 30X is far away. But I don't expect users to utter white noise when they speak. My calculation: 4X=SUM(abs(microphone))/SUM(abs(error)) 4X leaves me a lot of residual. Are there other tricks in increasing the reduction? thanks Andrew _____________________________________ Note: If you do a simple "reply" with your email client, only the author of this message will receive your answer.

Hello all, How to take care if the echo path has a gain. (no more erl) Thanks, Prabhu. --- "Shaw, David G (David)" <> wrote: > From experience you should not count on echo > cancellation > like you expect from the LEC numbers you may be > familiar with. > Measure the microphone noise floor and make sure > that your > residual error is not dominated by it. > It is VERY, VERY hard to reach 30dB from just the > AEC. > Issues: dynamic range (immediate echo vs local > talker levels), > dynamic echo path, noise floor, lack of tail length, > noise > floor of the sub-band filters (if used) etc. > > Regards, > Dave > > -----Original Message----- > From: andrew_xiang [mailto:] > Sent: Friday, September 12, 2003 10:58 AM > To: > Subject: [echocancel] acoustic echo cacellation > performance? > Anyone implemented a system that get you 30dB of > reduction for AEC? > > In my system, I only get 4X for voice signal.
