Abstract: An echo cancelling system and method for On Channel Repeater (OCR) used for coverage gap filling, which includes: a splitter, an echo cancellation module, a down-conversion module and a digital signal processor (DSP) module, which uses digital signal processing technologies to achieve a precise echo detection/estimation, and to cancel sufficient part of the echoes in analog domain. The invention may also remove residual echoes in digital domain as well, which is considered to be only a great supplement of the echo cancellation operation in analog domain.
