METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR REDUCING DISTORTION ECHO

Method and apparatus for reducing distortion echo are provided. K-path amplification and pre-distortion process are performed to the downlink reference signal to obtain K-path pre-distorted signals. Afterwards, filtering is performed using the self-adaptive filters which correspond to the downlink reference signal x(t) and the K-path pre-distorted signals to obtain the filtering signals. Error signals are obtained by calculating differences between the target signal and each of the filtering signals. The minimum-value fusion process is performed to the error signals to obtain the residual signal which is then output as the final self-adaptive echo cancellation. In embodiments of the present disclosure, the residual signal is relatively small as the minimum-value fusion process is performed to the error signals. That is to say, echo loss is relatively great. Therefore, the method may provide echo loss with high amplitude under a situation that a speaker has relatively serious distortion.
