Method using array microphone to cancel echo
A method using an may microphone to cancel echo applies to a sound receiving system and comprises steps: an array microphone receiving a sound source and outputting a plurality of analog acoustic signals formed from the sound source; an A/D converter converting the analog acoustic signals into a plurality of digital acoustic signals; a digital signal processor respectively using an adaptive beamforming process and a blocking matrix filtering process to convert the digital acoustic signals into a primary acoustic signal and at least one noise signal; and the digital signal processor using a multiple-input cancelling process to subtract the noise signal from the primary acoustic signal to obtain an acoustic signal where the echo has been cancelled. Thereby, the present invention can eliminate the systematic errors of the array microphone of the sound receiving system and improves the robustness of the acoustic signal.
