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.

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.
