Abstract
In a remote conference system based on a client server model, each of conference terminals comprises a terminal packet memory for storing a voice data of the conference terminal. When a synthesized voice data is multicasted to the conference terminals, each of the conference terminals searches own voice data included in the synthesized voice data from the terminal packet memory. An echo canceler in each of the conference terminals cancels own voice data from the synthesized voice data, thereby performing an echo canceling processing.
