/**
 * Acoustic Echo Canceler (AEC).
 * Acoustic Echo Canceler (AEC) is an audio pre-processing which removes the contribution of the
 * signal received from the remote party from the captured audio signal.
 * 
AEC is used by voice communication applications (voice chat, video conferencing, SIP calls)
 * where the presence of echo with significant delay in the signal received from the remote party
 * is highly disturbing. AEC is often used in conjunction with noise suppression (NS).
 * 
An application creates an AcousticEchoCanceler object to instantiate and control an AEC
 * engine in the audio capture path.
 * 
To attach the AcousticEchoCanceler to a particular {@link android.media.AudioRecord},
 * specify the audio session ID of this AudioRecord when creating the AcousticEchoCanceler.
 * The audio session is retrieved by calling
 * {@link android.media.AudioRecord#getAudioSessionId()} on the AudioRecord instance.
 * 
On some devices, an AEC can be inserted by default in the capture path by the platform
 * according to the {@link android.media.MediaRecorder.AudioSource} used. The application should
 * call AcousticEchoCanceler.getEnable() after creating the AEC to check the default AEC activation
 * state on a particular AudioRecord session.
 * 
See {@link android.media.audiofx.AudioEffect} class for more details on
 * controlling audio effects.
