    • A speech bandwidth extension method and apparatus analyzes narrowband speech sampled at 8 kHz using LPC analysis to determine its spectral shape and inverse filtering to extract its excitation signal. The excitation signal is interpolated to a sampling rate of 16 kHz and analyzed for pitch control and power level. A white noise generated wideband signal is then filtered to provide a synthesized wideband excitation signal. The narrowband shape is determined and compared to templates in respective vector quantizer codebooks, to select respective highband shape and gain. The synthesized wideband excitation signal is then filtered to provide a highband signal which is, in turn, added to the narrowband signal, interpolated to the 16 kHz sample rate, to produce an artificial wideband signal. The apparatus may be implemented on a digital signal processor chip.

    • In methods and apparatus for estimating the frequency response of telecommunications channels, signals carried on the channels are divided into pluralities of signal segments of limited duration, unvoiced signal segments are identified, and spectral components of the unvoiced signal segments are measured. The measured spectral components may be integrated over time to derive time-averaged measurements of the spectral components. The time-averaged measurements may be compared to corresponding components of expected unvoiced signal spectra to improve the accuracy of the frequency response estimates. Filters may be inserted in the channels to adjust the frequency responses, the filters having filter characteristics selected in response to the measured spectral components. The methods and apparatus can be used to compensate for poor bass frequency response in voice channels.

    • A digital telephone answering device having speakerphone capability allows a recorded message to be played back and heard by the far-end party as well as over the local speakerphone by the near-end party during speakerphone operation as if it were a normal receive signal. Moreover, normal speakerphone conversation is possible during this conversational playback mode allowing the far-end party and/or near-end party to break-in over the played back pre-recorded message as desired and be heard by the other party. Both message and conversation signals are preferably (but not necessarily) at similar levels. Also, the message playback at the near end is preferably (but not necessarily) subject to the same speakerphone digital volume control as that received at the far end.

    • A system for combining signals includes a first microphone generating a first input signal having a first voice component and a first noise component, a second microphone generating a second input signal having a second voice component and a second noise component, a mixing circuit, and an adaptive filter. The mixing circuit applies a first gain having a value α to the first input signal to produce a first scaled signal, applies a second gain having a value 1−α to the second input signal to produce a second scaled signal, and sums the first scaled signal and the second scaled signal to produce a summed signal. The adaptive filter computes an updated value of α to minimize the energy of the summed signal based on the summed signal, the first input signal and the second input signal, and provides the updated value of α to the mixing circuit.

    • An adjunct Type II caller ID/call waiting (CIDCW) receiver unit is provided which has a greatly improved ability to detect tones and other call related information on a telephone line from a central office while the customer premises equipment is in an off-hook condition. The inventive adjunct CIDCW receiver unit is placed in series between the telephone line from the central office and the customer premises equipment, rather than in parallel with the customer premises equipment as in conventional adjunct CIDCW receiver units. A second telephone line interface (TLI) is included in the adjunct CIDCW receiver unit for connection to the customer premises unit to simulate the impedance of the telephone line. The adjunct CIDCW receiver unit has the ability to disconnect, mute or suppress the microphone signal from the customer premises equipment from being included in the signal received by the call related information receiver portion of the adjunct CIDCW receiver unit.

    • An echo canceller system includes first and second echo cancellers. Each echo canceller includes a foreground filter and an adaptive background filter, with the foreground filter providing the actual echo cancellation and the background filter updating the foreground filter. The echo canceller system also includes send and receive paths, a shared coefficient memory, and a controller for switching the shared coefficient memory between background filters in response to signals along the send and receive paths. The switching includes resetting the shared coefficient memory to prevent any transfer of filter coefficients between the background filters. The background filters operate one at a time, depending on which background filter has access to the shared coefficient memory, while the foreground filters operate simultaneously. The echo canceller system is well-suited for use in loudspeaking telephone sets, with the first echo canceller canceling a line echo through a hybrid transformer, and the second echo canceller canceling an acoustic echo between a loudspeaker and a microphone. The coefficient memory may be switched to the first background filter in response to a near-end signal without a far-end signal (i.e., transmit state), and switched to the second background filter in response to a far-end signal without a near-end signal (i.e., receive state).
    • 回波消除器系统包括第一和第二回波消除器。 每个回波消除器包括前景滤波器和自适应背景滤波器,其中前台滤波器提供实际回波消除,并且背景滤波器更新前景滤波器。 回波消除器系统还包括发送和接收路径,共享系数存储器和用于响应于沿着发送和接收路径的信号在后台滤波器之间切换共享系数存储器的控制器。 切换包括复位共享系数存储器以防止在后台滤波器之间传送滤波器系数。 背景滤镜每次运行一个,这取决于哪个背景滤镜可以访问共享系数存储器,而前景滤镜同时运行。 回声消除器系统非常适合用于扬声器电话机,第一回波消除器通过混合变压器取消线路回声,第二回波消除器消除扬声器和麦克风之间的声学​​回声。 系数存储器可以响应于没有远端信号(即发送状态)的近端信号而被切换到第一背景滤波器,并且响应于没有接近的远端信号而切换到第二背景滤波器 -end信号(即接收状态)。
