Abstract

A controller for an acoustic echo canceller is described. The controller includes a noise estimator configured to estimate a level of noise that is comprised in a microphone signal relative to an echo component, estimated by the acoustic echo canceller, comprised in the microphone signal. The controller further includes a control module configured to control the acoustic echo canceller in dependence on that estimate.
