A doulbe talk detector using the reflection coefficients

In this paepr, we propose an intelligent double talk detector that can enhance the performance of the acoustic echo cancellation system. The conventional double talk detection methods often misunderstand the echo path changes as double talk. Although there exist several detection methods that can distinguish the echo path changes from the double-talks, they show poor tracking performance because of the excessive decision delay for the discrimination and can only be used after the adaptive digital filter converges. A new and more effective ditetion algorithm has been proposed, where the detection mechanism is performed by observing the change rate of the reflection coefficients of the two lattice predictors that re placed on the near-end and far-end terminals. The excellence of the proposed method is verified by extensive computer simulations using real speech signals.
