ABSTRACT:
An echo control system for an adaptive echo canceller which forms a pseudo-echo or its residual signal by combining respective outputs from a tapped delay line holding an estimated characteristic of an echo path as a tap weight and receiving a received signal or its residual signal as an input signal, subtracts the pseudo-echo or its residual signal from an echo signal or its residual signal, and corrects the tap weight using an amount of correction obtained by the resulting residual echo signal or its residual signal and the received signal or its residual signal. In accordance with the invention, there are provided a circuit noise estimation circuit for estimating a circuit noise of the echo path, a parameter error estimation circuit for estimating a parameter error between the characteristic of the echo path and its estimated characteristic, and a coefficient calculator for determining a correction coefficient obtained with the circuit noise, the parameter error and the received signal, wherein the said tap weight is corrected in accordance with the result of multiplication of the amount of correction and the correction coefficient. The system may be further provided with a device for transferring, as the said tap weight, the tap weight of the tapped delay line in the circuit noise estimation circuit when the circuit noise formed in the circuit noise estimation circuit is smaller than the residual echo signal.
