Adaptive echo and noise cancellation for car hands-free voice communication

21st Signal Processing and Communications Applications Conference (SIU) -- APR 24-26, 2013 -- CYPRUSWOS: 000325005300029The speech signals are formed with echo caused by the reflections and also noise caused by engine, tyres, wind, etc during using hands-free voice communication in automobiles. In this paper, it has been focused on the adaptive filtering algorithms that based on eliminating purpose of not only noise removal but also separation in speech signals with echo and noise. It has been evaluated that the speech signals separation performance by comparing adaptive filtering methods that made with Least Mean Squares (LMS) and Recursive Least Squares (RLS) algorithms. Signals belong to near and far end speakers will be decomposed with each while near-end and far-end speakers' signals affected by noise are decomposing from noise with the proposed adaptive algorithms. Furthermore, convergency and error analyses are performed by comparing the performances of LMS and RLS algorithms
