Line echo cancellation for voice
|
|
|
|
What does it do?
|
|
|
|
This module aims to provide G.168-2002 compliant echo cancellation, to remove
|
|
electrical echoes (e.g. from 2-4 wire hybrids) from voice calls.
|
|
|
|
|
|
How does it work?
|
|
|
|
The heart of the echo cancellor is FIR filter. This is adapted to match the
|
|
echo impulse response of the telephone line. It must be long enough to
|
|
adequately cover the duration of that impulse response. The signal transmitted
|
|
to the telephone line is passed through the FIR filter. Once the FIR is
|
|
properly adapted, the resulting output is an estimate of the echo signal
|
|
received from the line. This is subtracted from the received signal. The result
|
|
is an estimate of the signal which originated at the far end of the line, free
|
|
from echos of our own transmitted signal.
|
|
|
|
The least mean squares (LMS) algorithm is attributed to Widrow and Hoff, and
|
|
was introduced in 1960. It is the commonest form of filter adaption used in
|
|
things like modem line equalisers and line echo cancellers. There it works very
|
|
well. However, it only works well for signals of constant amplitude. It works
|
|
very poorly for things like speech echo cancellation, where the signal level
|
|
varies widely. This is quite easy to fix. If the signal level is normalised -
|
|
similar to applying AGC - LMS can work as well for a signal of varying
|
|
amplitude as it does for a modem signal. This normalised least mean squares
|
|
(NLMS) algorithm is the commonest one used for speech echo cancellation. Many
|
|
other algorithms exist - e.g. RLS (essentially the same as Kalman filtering),
|
|
FAP, etc. Some perform significantly better than NLMS. However, factors such
|
|
as computational complexity and patents favour the use of NLMS.
|
|
|
|
A simple refinement to NLMS can improve its performance with speech. NLMS tends
|
|
to adapt best to the strongest parts of a signal. If the signal is white noise,
|
|
the NLMS algorithm works very well. However, speech has more low frequency than
|
|
high frequency content. Pre-whitening (i.e. filtering the signal to flatten its
|
|
spectrum) the echo signal improves the adapt rate for speech, and ensures the
|
|
final residual signal is not heavily biased towards high frequencies. A very
|
|
low complexity filter is adequate for this, so pre-whitening adds little to the
|
|
compute requirements of the echo canceller.
|
|
|
|
An FIR filter adapted using pre-whitened NLMS performs well, provided certain
|
|
conditions are met:
|
|
|
|
- The transmitted signal has poor self-correlation.
|
|
- There is no signal being generated within the environment being
|
|
cancelled.
|
|
|
|
The difficulty is that neither of these can be guaranteed.
|
|
|
|
If the adaption is performed while transmitting noise (or something fairly
|
|
noise like, such as voice) the adaption works very well. If the adaption is
|
|
performed while transmitting something highly correlative (typically narrow
|
|
band energy such as signalling tones or DTMF), the adaption can go seriously
|
|
wrong. The reason is there is only one solution for the adaption on a near
|
|
random signal - the impulse response of the line. For a repetitive signal,
|
|
there are any number of solutions which converge the adaption, and nothing
|
|
guides the adaption to choose the generalised one. Allowing an untrained
|
|
canceller to converge on this kind of narrowband energy probably a good thing,
|
|
since at least it cancels the tones. Allowing a well converged canceller to
|
|
continue converging on such energy is just a way to ruin its generalised
|
|
adaption. A narrowband detector is needed, so adapation can be suspended at
|
|
appropriate times.
|
|
|
|
The adaption process is based on trying to eliminate the received signal. When
|
|
there is any signal from within the environment being cancelled it may upset
|
|
the adaption process. Similarly, if the signal we are transmitting is small,
|
|
noise may dominate and disturb the adaption process. If we can ensure that the
|
|
adaption is only performed when we are transmitting a significant signal level,
|
|
and the environment is not, things will be OK. Clearly, it is easy to tell when
|
|
we are sending a significant signal. Telling, if the environment is generating
|
|
a significant signal, and doing it with sufficient speed that the adaption will
|
|
not have diverged too much more we stop it, is a little harder.
|
|
|
|
The key problem in detecting when the environment is sourcing significant
|
|
energy is that we must do this very quickly. Given a reasonably long sample of
|
|
the received signal, there are a number of strategies which may be used to
|
|
assess whether that signal contains a strong far end component. However, by the
|
|
time that assessment is complete the far end signal will have already caused
|
|
major mis-convergence in the adaption process. An assessment algorithm is
|
|
needed which produces a fairly accurate result from a very short burst of far
|
|
end energy.
|
|
|
|
How do I use it?
|
|
|
|
The echo cancellor processes both the transmit and receive streams sample by
|
|
sample. The processing function is not declared inline. Unfortunately,
|
|
cancellation requires many operations per sample, so the call overhead is only
|
|
a minor burden.
