Abstract

In example implementations, an apparatus is provided. The apparatus includes an adaptive filter and a double talk detector in communication with the adaptive filter. The adaptive filter is to calculate a transfer function with coefficients for a particular time that is applied to an output signal of a microphone to cancel echoes caused by a reference signal in the output signal of the microphone. The double talk detector is to determine a peak of the coefficients, detect double talk based on a location of the peak of the coefficients, and transmit a pause signal to the adaptive filter in response to detection of the double talk, wherein the pause signal is to pause a calculation of updates to the coefficients by the adaptive filter.
