Abstract

A method and apparatus for adapting dual filters is disclosed. In one aspect, a method may include transforming a signal, adapting a first adaptive filter based on the transformed signal, estimating a delay of an impulse response based on the adaptation of the first filter, delaying a signal based on the estimated delay, and adapting a second adaptive filter based on the delayed signal. In one aspect, an echo or other unwanted signal may be reduced or cancelled based on the adaptation of the second filter.
