Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods for disabling adaptive echo cancellation functionality for a temporal window are provided herein. In some embodiments, audio data may be received by a voice activated electronic device, where the audio data may include an utterance of a wakeword that may be subsequently followed by additional speech. A start time of when the wakeword began to be uttered may be determined by the voice activated electronic device, and the voice activated electronic device may also send the audio data to a backend system. Adaptive echo cancellation functionality may be disabled at the start time. The backend system may determine an end time of the speech, and may provide an indication to the voice activated electronic device of the end time, which in turn may cause the voice activated electronic device to enable the adaptive echo cancellation functionality at the end time.
