Zusammenfassung:In order to reduce acoustic echo and restore stereophonic sound in a digital transmission system of sound signals on multiple transmission channels, between a local site and one or several remote sites, comprising several microphones and loudspeakers, the method consists in the following steps: computing a weighting factor to be applied to each microphone signal before emitting, based on two attenuation factors computed from the microphone and loudspeaker signals; transmitting on each transmission channel the linear combination of weighted microphone signals; computing a weighting factor to be applied to each loudspeaker signal; and emitting on the loudspeaker the linear combination of transmitted, weighted signals.
