Abstract

In this paper we propose a new dual structured tap selection algorithm for voice echo canceller in digital cellular communication system, investigating adaptive filtering algorithms for echo cancellation in long distance telephony or mobile communication system. The proposed algorithm has a two-stage processing structure that after a dispersive region in an impulse response of an echo path is found out, the tap coefficients of a short length filter are adjusted adaptively for the region, because the impuse response has a very little portion of the dispersion. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm with 256 taps gives a performance of convergence speed superior to both full-tap normalized least mean with 256 taps gives a performance of convergence speed superior to both full-tap normalized least mean square (NLMS) and a scrub taps waiting in a queue (STWQ) algorithms by about eighty per cent, also to a tap selection algorithm by about twenty per cent. And the resutls diplay that if the more tap coefficients are used due to a long delayed dispersive zone, the proposed algorithm produces the better performance.
