Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for a segmented ECF that includes multiple filter components to replicate an echo pulse response. The different filter components are used to replicate different portions of the echo pulse response. Each filter components can include filter coefficients of different sizes based on the portions of the echo pulse response that is replicated by the filter component. For example, a filter component that replicates a portion of the echo pulse response that includes a large reflection can include large filter coefficients suitable to replicate the larger reflection. In contrast, a filter component that replicates a portion of the echo pulse response that includes smaller reflections can include smaller filter coefficients that are suitable to replicate the smaller reflection. The output of each of the filter components is combined to replicate the full echo pulse response.

A cable modem comprises transmitter circuitry, receiver circuitry, and memory. Upon power up of the cable modem in the field, the transmitter circuitry transmits one or more first signals into a network. The receiver circuitry measure echoes of the transmitted one or more first signals. The receiver circuitry generates an installation figure of merit based on the measured echoes and factory-calibration echo measurements stored in the memory. The communication device begins DOCSIS® network registration if the installation quality measurement meets a determined requirement and generates a notification to troubleshoot the installation of the communication device if the installation quality measurement does not meet a determined requirement.

An Ethernet Physical Layer (PHY) device includes a link interface and a transceiver. The link interface connects to a full-duplex wired Ethernet link. The transceiver receives first Ethernet signals carrying first data at a first data rate over toe Ethernet link at a first baud rate, transmits second Ethernet signals carrying second data at a second data rate higher than the first data rate, over the Ethernet link, at a second baud rate that is higher than the first baud rate, resamples a reference signal related to the second Ethernet signals to match the first baud rate, generates from the resampled reference signal, at the first baud rate, an echo cancelation signal indicative of an echo signal originating from the second Ethernet signals and interfering with reception of the first Ethernet signals, and suppresses the echo signal from the first Ethernet signals using the echo cancelation signal.

A transceiver to communicate in a vehicle via a single twisted-pair Ethernet cable includes a transmitter to transmit signals via the single twisted-pair Ethernet cable and a receiver to receive signals via the single twisted-pair Ethernet cable. The transceiver includes an equalizer, a signal-to-noise ratio estimator, and a controller. The equalizer includes a notch filter and a slicer. The equalizer receives an input signal received by the transceiver via the single twisted-pair Ethernet cable. The notch filter cancels electromagnetic interference from the input signal and to output a filtered signal. The slicer slices the filtered signal. The signal-to-noise ratio estimator estimates a signal-to-noise ratio based on an output of the slicer. The controller controls a rate of adapting the equalizer by controlling a rate of change of tap values of the notch filter based on the signal-to-noise ratio.

A first mobile communication device that includes a first microphone, a first speaker, and a first delay unit. The first microphone is configured to (i) receive, during a conference call, a first user first microphone signal from a first user, and (ii) output a first microphone digital signal to the first delay unit. The first user first microphone signal represents audio content outputted by the first user. The first delay unit is configured to delay, by a delay period, the first microphone digital signal to provide a delayed first user first device digital signal. The first mobile communication device is configured to output, to a mixer, the delayed first user first device digital signal. The delay period is determined based on measurements executed by at least one mobile communication device out of the first mobile communication device, a second mobile communication device and a third mobile communication device.
