Embodiment Construction

[0098] The detailed description set forth below in connection with the accompanying drawings serves as a description of a number of different configurations. The detailed description includes specific details to provide a thorough understanding of various concepts. It will be apparent, however, to one skilled in the art that these concepts may be practiced without these specific details. Several aspects of the apparatus and methods are described in terms of a number of different blocks, functional units, modules, elements, circuits, steps, processes, algorithms, etc. (collectively referred to as "elements"). Depending on the particular application, design constraints, or other reasons, these elements may be implemented using electronic hardware, computer programs or any combination thereof.

[0099] Electronic hardware may include microprocessors, microcontrollers, digital signal processors (DSPs), field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), programmable logic devices (PLDs), gatin...

Abstract

The invention discloses a hearing system, which comprises a hearing device and a remote unit. The hearing device comprises a direction sensitive input voice converter unit, which converts the acoustic voice signals into electric noise-containing voice signals; a wireless voice receiver unit, which receives wireless voice signals from the remote unit, wherein the wireless voice signals are noise-free voice signals; and a processing unit, which generates dual-ear electric output signals based on the electric noise-containing voice signals and the wireless voice signals.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a hearing device and a hearing system comprising a hearing device and a remote unit. The invention also relates to a method for generating noise-free binaural electrical output sound signals. Background technique [0002] Hearing devices are used to improve or enable auditory perception, ie hearing. As a set of hearing devices, hearing aids are commonly used today and help hearing-impaired people improve their hearing ability. Hearing aids generally include a microphone, an output sound transducer, circuitry, and a power source such as a battery. The output sound transducer may be, for example, a speaker (also known as a receiver), a vibrator, an electrode array configured to be implanted in the cochlea, or any other device capable of generating a signal that a user perceives as sound from an electrical signal. The microphone receives acoustic sound signals from the environment and generates electrical sound signals represen...
