Abstract

A method of controlling an echo canceller in a communications channel, is disclosed wherein input signals from the communications channel are first subbanded into a subband. Echo locations are then identified within the subband and are used to control the echo canceller. Typically, the echo canceller will be a fullband echo canceller with an adaptive filter, in which case the echo locations are used to control the filter coefficients.
