“…Moreover, a non-negligible amount of ambient noise (r[n]) might also be present. In these situations, the captured microphone signal (d[n]) conveys components that are unrelated to the acoustic path, h[n], and therefore, the underlying modeling principal of the AEC becomes violated, and consecutively, the adaptive process would diverge and fail [2,3,[21][22][23]. To avoid this scenario, as illustrated in Fig.…”
