A method and apparatus for enhancing a speech signal contaminated by additive noise through Kalman filtering. The speech is decomposed into subband speech signals by a multichannel analysis filter bank including bandpass filters and decimation filters. Each subband speech signal is converted into a sequence of voice frames. A plurality of low-order Kalman filters are respectively applied to filter each of the subband speech signals. The autoregression (AR) parameters which are required for each Kalman filter are estimated frame-by-frame by using a correlation subtraction method to estimate the autocorrelation function and solving the corresponding Yule-Walker equations for each of the subband speech signals, respectively. The filtered subband speech signals are then combined or synthesized by a multichannel synthesis filter bank including interpolation filters and bandpass filters, and the outputs of the multichannel synthesis filter bank are summed in an adder to produce the enhanced fullband speech signal.

A communication system includes an echo canceller and double-talk detector. The echo canceller includes an adaptive finite impulse response filter that generates an adaptive filter weight vector. The double talk detector computes a squared norm of the filter weight vector and detects an increase of the squared norm in order to detect double-talk status. Upon detection of double-talk status, operation of the echo canceller is suspended.

Method and apparatus for deciding a channel impulse response for an OFDM system are provided. First, a channel frequency response is generated by using a plurality of pilot tones of a signal. A channel impulse response is generated by applying the IFFT to the channel frequency response. A plurality of selected channel taps are derived by comparing a plurality of channel taps related to the channel impulse response with a reference threshold. Finally, the channel impulse response is generated by calculating channel impulse respose according to the selected channel taps. This method calculates the channel impulse response in time domain and frequency domain so that the calculation complexity can be reduced, and the system efficiency can be enhanced.

The transmitted signal comprises a plurality of sub-transmitted signals.

A MIMO OFDM system for TICM includes a tone-level interleaver at the transmitter using a block of NT symbols as its basic unit. This results in different decoding architectures at the receiver. The main advantage of TICM is to merge soft-bit demapping into the Viterbi algorithm. Taking advantage of the trellis structure inherent in the Viterbi algorithm, TICM can have lower computational complexity and potentially better performance than BICM with the LSD detector and the vector demapper. Although the tone-level interleaving may not have spatial diversity gain, the performance is not affected in 802.11n environments.
