Abstract

A method of controlling an echo canceller for providing an echo cancellation signal by subtracting an echo replica signal either from a transmit signal or a receive signal. The method includes the steps of a first step of performing a speech detection based on the echo cancellation signal provided by the echo canceller; a second step of detecting a double talk condition based on a result of the speech detection performed by the first step; and a third step of controlling a learning operation of the echo canceller based on a result of the double talk detection performed by the second step.
