==METHOD FOR OPERATING A BINAURAL HEARING DEVICE, BINAURAL HEARING DEVICE AND DATA MEDIUM - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240031746 titled 'METHOD FOR OPERATING A BINAURAL HEARING DEVICE, BINAURAL HEARING DEVICE AND DATA MEDIUM

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes a method for operating a binaural hearing device consisting of two individual devices. Each device has an input transducer to receive an acoustic signal and convert it into a multi-channel input signal. The devices also have impulse noise suppression to reduce impulse noise signal levels, an amplifier for signal amplification, an output transducer to convert the output signal into a sound signal, and a transceiver unit for signal coupling between the devices.

The method involves defining a scalar limitation value from the attenuation curve in each individual device. These limitation values are communicated to the respective other device, and a common limitation value is defined from the two limitation values. The attenuation curves are then limited with the common limitation value, and the signal amplification is set based on the limited attenuation curves.

* The method operates a binaural hearing device with two individual devices.
* Each device has an input transducer, impulse noise suppression, an amplifier, an output transducer, and a transceiver unit.
* Scalar limitation values are defined from the attenuation curve in each device.
* The limitation values are communicated between the devices.
* A common limitation value is defined from the two limitation values.
* The attenuation curves are limited with the common limitation value.
* The signal amplification is set based on the limited attenuation curves.

Potential applications of this technology:
* Hearing aids and assistive listening devices
* Communication devices for individuals with hearing impairments
* Virtual reality and gaming headsets with enhanced spatial audio

Problems solved by this technology:
* Reduction of impulse noise signal levels for improved hearing experience
* Signal amplification tailored to individual hearing needs
* Signal coupling between binaural hearing devices for synchronized audio processing

Benefits of this technology:
* Enhanced hearing experience with reduced impulse noise
* Improved spatial audio perception and localization
* Customizable signal amplification for individual hearing preferences


==Original Abstract Submitted==

a method operates a binaural hearing device having two individual devices. the individual devices each have an input transducer to receive an acoustic signal and convert it into a multi-channel input signal, impulse noise suppression to generate an attenuation curve to reduce impulse noise signal levels, an amplifier for the multi-channel signal amplification of the input signal and for generating an output signal based on the attenuation curve, an output transducer to convert the output signal into a sound signal, and a transceiver unit for signal coupling between the individual devices. in each individual device a scalar limitation value is defined from the attenuation curve. the limitation values are communicated to the respective other individual device. a common limitation value is defined from the two limitation values. the attenuation curves are limited with the common limitation value, and the signal amplification is set based on the limited attenuation curves.
