Abstract

A signal processor includes an adaptive filter that generates an output signal as a function of an input signal and of weighting coefficients stored in a memory. An error detector generates an error signal as a function of the output signal. The error signal is used in adjusting the weighting coefficients. A data processor adjusts the number of weighting coefficients of the adaptive filter and system resources used for storing the weighting coefficients as a function of a characteristic of the weighting coefficients.
