Abstract

A gain control system for dynamically tuning an echo canceller, the echo canceller being configured to estimate an echo of a far-end signal and subtract that echo estimate from a microphone signal to output an echo cancelled signal, the gain control system comprising a monitoring unit configured to estimate an energy associated with an impulse response of an adaptive filter configured to generate the echo estimate from the far-end signal and a gain tuner configured to adjust an attenuation of at least one of the microphone signal and the far-end signal in dependence on the estimated energy.
