Acoustic Echo Removal for c6747

tharangini chinnadurai

Hi,

I have installed the AER version 15.1.10.3 (We have been already approved for downloading this version- hence we got one). When I try to use the example code under packages\ti\mas\aer\test, I face with the following problems:

1. The function aerSendIn() where actually the AER is used is called nowhere in the example code aersim.c

2. I manually included aerSendIn() to the aersim.c (that is I included siu_tx_execute(inst) just before piuPcmIo is called- please see below). Then, inside siu_tx_execute(), when I tap out the near end signal, which is Fread into the FILE, sendIn in siutx.c (at aerSimFread(send_frm, sin_frm_len, sendIn)). FYI : sendIn = fopen(txin_file, "rb"); where txin_file = "C:/A/fe_16k.pcm";), the near end signal sounds a little bit fast - as if it is sampled at twice the rate. How to get this to sample correctly?

siu_tx_execute(inst);

stat = piuPcmIo (inst->piuInst, piu_segment_in, piu_segment_out);

4201.Test_AER_2_22_03_12.zip

I have attached the code herewith for your reference.

How to make the AER work for c6747?

Please help.

Hi Tharangini,

Function aerSendIn() is called in siutx.c. Again, I suggest you looking into AER 16.0.0.1 for example code on how to integrate AER, as I said in another post - http://e2e.ti.com/support/embedded/multimedia_software_codecs/f/356/t/177248.aspx#640124.

Regards,

Jianzhong

Hi Jianzhong,

Thank you for your reply. I got the approval from TI today and I downloaded the AER ver 16.0.0.1. I opened the project in ccsv4, there were no compiler or linker errors; but the loader wouldnt load it(I can connect to target, but the "load program" is disabled(like greyed out). the following is the error I got when I select the "debug active project" option (when the AER project was made as the active project.

"C674X_0: Loader: One or more sections of your program falls into a memory region that is not writable. These regions will not actually be written to the target. Check your linker configuration and/or memory map."

Hi Tharangini,

You'll need to modify the linker command file for the specific platform on which you'll be running the executable. The linker command file is: aer_c64Px_obj_16_0_0_1\packages\ti\mas\aer\test\lnkr\c64Ple\aertest_c64Ple.cmd. This file is good only for TCI6482 DSK or C64x+ simulator. The executable aertest_c64Ple.x64P can run on C674x platform, but the memory map must match with aertest_c64Ple.cmd.

Regards,

Jianzhong

Hi Jianzhong,

I have pasted( below) the contents of the aertest_c64Ple.cmd. Could you pls let me know which registers/lines need to be changed?

Hi Tharangini,

You need to modify the memory section definitions (see below) according to the memory map of your device.

MEMORY
{
    EXT_MEM0 : origin = 0xE0000000, length = 0x00000800
    EXT_MEM1 : origin = 0xE0000800, length = 0x0002F800
    EXT_MEM2 : origin = 0xE0030000, length = 0x00030000
    EXT_MEM3 : origin = 0xE0060000, length = 0x00040000
    EXT_MEM4 : origin = 0xE00a0000, length = 0x00000800
    EXT_MEM5 : origin = 0xE00a0800, length = 0x00000800
    EXT_MEM6 : origin = 0xE00a1000, length = 0x00000800
}

Specifically, find out the address of external memory. For example, if your external memory starts from 0x80000000, then you should have:

MEMORY
{
    EXT_MEM0 : origin = 0x80000000, length = 0x00000800
    EXT_MEM1 : origin = 0x80000800, length = 0x0002F800
    EXT_MEM2 : origin = 0x80030000, length = 0x00030000
    EXT_MEM3 : origin = 0x80060000, length = 0x00040000
    EXT_MEM4 : origin = 0x800a0000, length = 0x00000800
    EXT_MEM5 : origin = 0x800a0800, length = 0x00000800
    EXT_MEM6 : origin = 0x800a1000, length = 0x00000800
}

Regards,

Jianzhong
