ABSTRACT:
An acoustic echo canceller (AEC) apparatus for canceling an echo signal input to a microphone in a mobile terminal. In the AEC apparatus, a first analysis filter bank divides a signal received from the microphone into a plurality of subband signals, and classifies the subband signals into high-band signals and low-band signals according to a predetermined reference. A second analysis filter bank divides a far-end user's signal into a plurality of subband signals, and outputs particular subband signals being lower than or equal to a reference band to an adaptive filter bank. The adaptive filter bank receives the subband signals output from the second analysis filter bank, and generates estimated echo signals for the individual subbands. An adder calculates differences between the low-band signals among the subband signals output from the first analysis filter bank and the estimated echo signals output from the adaptive filter bank. A synthesis filer bank synthesizes signals output from the adder according to subband, and converts the synthesized signals into a time-domain signal.
