Abstract

The present invention relates to a method of synchronizing a hearing instrument with other devices in a wireless network, the hearing system comprising a first hearing instrument having a first receiver for wireless data communication between the first hearing instrument and another device in the wireless network, and a first communication controller that is adapted for controlling the wireless data communication in accordance with a protocol of the wireless network according to which a second transmitter of the other device is controlled to transmit wireless data in a specific time slot in a frame of time slots, and the first receiver of the first hearing instrument is repeatedly enabled to receive data for an activated time period and disabled from receiving data for a de-activated time period, and wherein the first communication controller is further adapted for synchronising the first hearing instrument to the other device in the network by adjusting the sum of the activated time period and de-activated time period to be different from the duration of a frame so that the time slot for transmission of data and the activated time period will overlap at one time.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a hearing system comprising a hearing device having a receiver and a transmitter for wireless data communication between the hearing device and another device in a wireless network and adapted to be controlled according to a protocol of the wireless network A communication controller for the wireless data communication. In particular, the invention relates to a method of synchronizing a hearing device with other devices in a wireless network. Background technique [0002] WO 2004 / 110099 discloses a wireless network for hearing aids with a simple communication protocol, thus requiring little code and power consumption during operation. Also, the fetch time is low and the latency is low. [0003] The disclosed hearing aid comprises a transceiver for interconnecting the hearing aid with a wireless network to communicate with a plurality of other devices, and a communication controller adapted to control data exchange over the ne...
