Abstract

See full text

In a voice transmission network having an echo canceler including a flat delay line in series with an adaptive digital filter, a process is provided for adjusting the flat delay line length, thus enabling limiting the filter length to minimal value. The method is based on intercorrelation operations. It includes first intercorrelating sequences of energy values of blocks or consecutive samples, to derive a rough flat delay estimation therefrom; then intercorrelating sequences of signal samples with one of the sequences being roughly delayed, to derive therefrom an accurate flat delay estimation.
