[asterisk-users] Echo Cancellation on VoIP networks
Hello, I'm new to Echo Cancellation and I was wondering how it is handled/works on pure VoIP networks using Asterisk? I did some research on the internet about EC on VoIP networks, but I can't really put a grasp on it. We currently have some Echo Cancellation chips on our Digium cards, but are planning to move to a full VoIP network based on Asterisk. So no more ISDN in the voice path. Does Asterisk have any pre-installed Echo Cancellation software? Which hardware cards are recommended for doing echo cancellation on VoIP networks? I hope someone could point me into the right direction. Regards, Grant -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Echo Cancellation when calling from softphone to mobile.
There are two common types of echo. Accoustic Echo: This is caused by microphone picking up audio from the speaker. This echo cannot generally be removed by echo cancelers. The solution to accoustic echo is to prevent the microphone from picking up audio from the speaker (or handset or earpiece). Line Echo: This is caused by your outgoing audio “reflecting” off the far end of an analog line. This happens in all calls with a 2-wire analog portion, however in analog and digital (aka PRI) the delay in echo is so small we can’t perceive it.VoIP has far larger latencies so we can hear the echo. This type of echo MUST be canceled out before the audio is converted to VoIP.

I have hardware echo canceling enabled on all channels/spans, but there is still echo on the lines for both calls out of the trunk, as well as station-to-station calls.

I think you refer to the echo test that comes with the default extensions.conf file. Within the regular installation of asterisk on the extensions.conf file you will have an echo test extension.

In my case using a test tone number was of no help, rather I just listened in on calls in progress and used ztmonitor to see where the levels were and adjusted things until I had a good level and the sound quality was acceptable. Until I did the manual tuning I had serious issues of static and background noise on several lines, but not all. I don't blame this on the Sangoma card, but rather on the line quality as I run Sangomas in other locations and have never had to do any tuning there, they have just worked. -chris www.mythtech.net -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Echo problem in VoIP-calls
Hello Gareth, echo also appears when making calls with a SIP phone. These are outgoing calls. Another site now also gives feedback on echo, telling they sometimes also have echo on outgoing calls and if they recall right then sometimes also on incoming calls (coming from a queue). This one site that now also gives feedback on echo has a fiber optic internet connection, so I don't think the latency plays a role here. I will now turn off the buffer in sip.conf and see how this goes... I hope I can resolve this echo-problem. Jonas. On 06/30/2010 04:24 PM, Gareth Blades wrote: Try the SIP phone. If it is better then you might try looking to see if there are any echo cancelation settings on the softphone or analogue adapter you can change. Try turning echo cancelation off aswell since if there are two running they can interfere with each other and make the situation worse. If you hear echo on that phone then it might be that the network connection from that location has a higher latency making the echo far more noticeable. If the other party you are connecting to hears echo then this could be down to the phone or the jitter buffer. If you start with a small jitter buffer the echo cancelation will train to that but if you get increased jitter the buffer will grow and add an additional delay to the audio. Often echo cancelation only trains at the start of a call. Maybe try disabling the jitter buffer. -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

Re: [asterisk-users] Echo problem in VoIP-calls
Routers wont cause echo. In order for them to do so they would have to store the outbound voice traffic, delay it and then mix it into the inbound voice. Telephones inherently cause echo. For domestic calls the audio path is normally so short that any echo arrives back so quick the human ear does not detect it. For international calls the telco uses expensive echo cancelation technology. When you switch to voip you are often suddenly introducing a much larger delay so any excho which was present before but not noticed suddenly becomes noticable. You need to analyse the audio path your calls are taking, where the delays are being introduced and where echo cancelation is being applied. You also havent stated which end of the conversation is hearing the echo. Jonas Kellens wrote: Hello, I also thought about echo because the Zoiper softphone is used with a headset.

Re: [asterisk-users] Echo problem in VoIP-calls
Hello, I stated in my first post that both ends hear an echo when one speaks to the other... The only place where echo cancellation is being applied is in the Asterisk server. I have the following in sip.conf : ;-- JITTER BUFFER CONFIGURATION -- jbenable = yes ; Enables the use of a jitterbuffer on the receiving side of a ; SIP channel. Defaults to no. An enabled jitterbuffer will ; be used only if the sending side can create and the receiving ; side can not accept jitter. The SIP channel can accept jitter, ; thus a jitterbuffer on the receive SIP side will be used only ; if it is forced and enabled. jbforce = no; Forces the use of a jitterbuffer on the receive side of a SIP ; channel. Defaults to no. ;--- Thank you for your replies. Kind regards. Jonas. On 06/30/2010 11:36 AM, Gareth Blades wrote: Routers wont cause echo.

Re: [asterisk-users] Echo problem in VoIP-calls
Thats the jitter buffer. It has no effect on echo. So you get echo when calling from the softphone to the analogue phone? What about when one of those calls somewhere else? What if they call a regular telephone number? How do you connect in order to send calls to normal phone numbers? Jonas Kellens wrote: Hello, I stated in my first post that both ends hear an echo when one speaks to the other... The only place where echo cancellation is being applied is in the Asterisk server.

Re: [asterisk-users] Echo problem in VoIP-calls
Hi! The network setup is : analogue+GXW / softphone -- Linksys WAG160N -- Asterisk server -- ITSP -- other networks Do it step-by-step: Take the Asterisk server out of the equation, i.e. call the destination directly with your softphone or the Grandstream ATA and see if that removes the echo. That fact that both sides are hearing echo is a bit unusual - especially when calling a mobile destination things should be different. Check twice that the analog devices in the setup are ok, and replace them for a test if you can. You could also test with a destination that is run by a different operator (or is located in a different country). Another test: Use the Echo() application on Asterisk and call it from both sides. Also: You could capture the traffic and look at it with Wireshark, the delay/latency in particular. Philipp P.S.: I do think a jitter buffer matters for echo, simply because it introduces an additional delay. However the Asterisk server should not use its jitter buffer because jbforce is set to no and the Asterisk server is not the final endpoint (it only sits in between). -- _ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- New to Asterisk?

When the audio comes back from the PSTN it has echo on it. They are not performing echo cancellation. If it is an international call from the ITSP's perspective then teh network operator should be performing echo cancelation anyway. If its a national call then the telco doesnt perform echo cancelation but the ITSP should do it themselves.

Re: [asterisk-users] Echo problem in VoIP-calls
Try the SIP phone. If it is better then you might try looking to see if there are any echo cancelation settings on the softphone or analogue adapter you can change. Try turning echo cancelation off aswell since if there are two running they can interfere with each other and make the situation worse. If you hear echo on that phone then it might be that the network connection from that location has a higher latency making the echo far more noticeable. If the other party you are connecting to hears echo then this could be down to the phone or the jitter buffer. If you start with a small jitter buffer the echo cancelation will train to that but if you get increased jitter the buffer will grow and add an additional delay to the audio. Often echo cancelation only trains at the start of a call. Maybe try disabling the jitter buffer.

Yes if you have a link where there is a lot of jitter it may affect the call quality. I would try turning it off to see if it cures the problem and if it does then you can restore the setting and implement a workaround.

I think you need to remove the line echocanceller in system.conf You could also try to use fxotune, it'a really improving things.

Re: [asterisk-users] Echo issue
The echo between our extensions (using Polycom 550 handsets) disappears once I removed the Digium echo module. Are you routing internal calls from SIP - DAHDI - SIP? The digium echo module will not have any effect on pure SIP - SIP calls. Do you have acoustic echo cancellation active on the Polycom phones? What kind of settings do you recommend for the txgain and rxgain? Ideally, you will need to measure to find out what settings you want. See this page on the wiki (see the note on values for PRI circuits): http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+zapata+gain+adjustment (use dahdi_monitor instead of ztmonitor) You can also just experiment with different values. Change just one setting at a time, and then reload Dahdi. Try this to start: txgain = 0.0 rxgain = 1.0 and then on the asterisk cli, enter: module reload chan_dahdi.so If that doesn't help, try increasing to rxgain=2.0. Keep going until it sounds better. You may want to try negative values for txgain. Do I make the gain changes in chan_dahdi.conf? Yes. Make sure to put them before your channel numbers. You can specify values on a per-channel basis.

Re: [asterisk-users] Echo issue
Hi - I am having echo issues on our Asterisk box using a PRI circuit. I was using the software echo cancellation and that helped a bit but didn't solve it completely. So I went and bought a Digium echo cancellation module for the TE121 card. That made it even worst, getting more echo on external calls and between internal extension to extension. The echo doesn't happen all the time, but enough to get complaints from our users. Completely fed up with the issue, I removed the module from the card. Can someone guide me on how to fix/tune/address the echo issues. You can likely eliminate most echo on a PRI by setting txgain and rxgain. Are you using dahdi or zaptel? If Dahdi, what do your system.conf and chan_dahdi.conf look like? If zaptel, what do your zaptel.conf and zapata.conf look like? When you say you have echo on calls that are internal extension to internal extension, are the endpoints using dahdi/zaptel or some voip technology (sip, iax, mgcp, skinny, etc)? If voip, any echo is acoustically generated by the endpoints themselves. On voip calls I've often had this happen when the endpoints are using headsets, or have gain levels set very high. - Noah ___ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users

It's a couple of grand, but after months of playing with software EC, the hardware modules and every zaptel setting we could find, this appliance removed echo like flipping a switch. The metrics we later obtained from it clearly showed that we simply had tail on a long loop to an old CO switch that exceeded the maximum 128ms that either software EC or the hardware module could handle. The side benefits are that we get all sorts of metrics from the appliance, and we also get adaptive gain, which solved another problem we had with trying to find gain settings that suited both softly-spoken and strident users. The support from Ditech was excellent and we haven't looked back.

[asterisk-users] Echo and Playtones not working on SIP after upgrade
Hello list I had the following echo-test extension on my Asterisk 1.2 setup. exten = 1003,1,Wait(1) exten = 1003,n,Playtones(!1050/1000) exten = 1003,n,Wait(1) exten = 1003,n,StopPlaytones exten = 1003,n,Echo exten = 1003,n,Hangup After migrating my testing server to Asterisk 1.4, and a minor extensions.conf update, everything works just fine. Except for the Playtones and the Echo applications on SIP channels. Over IAX2, both Echo and Playtones works fine on this same extension and system! I googled and tried several things, but nothing seems to work. Basically the log shows it is working, there are no errors or warnings, but there is no sound at all. No beeps, no Echo. Calls, voicemail, moh, and everything else we are using works just fine. We are using Asterisk 1.4.21.2~dfsg-3 (on debian stable), SIP channels with both grandstream and soft phones. Everything on the same network segment. Codec does not seem to affect this behavior (tried them all) Any clues?

Re: [asterisk-users] Echo
Echo Cancellation: 128 taps unless TDM bridged, currently ON The "currently ON" is telling you that the echo canceller is active. You could try changing echotraining to no in chan_dahdi.conf as well. What were you running before you upgraded? So, Asterisk doesn't start echo canceling a line until it is in use? I thought that might be the case. I was running Zaptel before this, not sure what version. I upgrade to Dahdi. The echo was present in Zaptel, but not as bad. Does anyone have any experience with hardware echo cancel modules? Are they better/worse than software? What would be the best solution to remove echo?

Is that the harwdare module? Do I even need to specify an echo canceller in the configs if I have a hardware echo module? MG2 is a software canceller. I don't think that line means that MG2 is being used on all your channels. If you look at the Channel map it says "(Echo Canceler: none)". If it had been set to MG2 you would see MG2 instead of none. You do not need to specify an echo canceller in system.conf when you have a hardware canceller. One thing I would check is to make sure asterisk is activating the echo canceller when a call is in progress. To do this execute "core show channels" at the asterisk command line (make sure someone on the system has placed a call on the PRI). Look for a DAHDI/#-x line. Then execute "dahdi show channel #" where # is the channel number. You'll get a screen full of output. Look for a line that looks like this (it will be near the end): Echo Cancellation: 128 taps unless TDM bridged, currently ON The "currently ON" is telling you that the echo canceller is active.
