  • the input transducers may also include a telecoil or antenna for receiving electromagnetic input signals.
  • the input signals converted by the input transducer into electrical input signals are fed to a signal processing unit for further processing and amplification. The further processing and amplification takes place to compensate for the individual hearing loss of a Höragistechnikitatis usually in response to the signal frequency.
  • the signal processing unit outputs an electrical output signal, which is fed via an output transducer to the hearing of the hearing aid wearer, so that the latter perceives the output signal as an acoustic signal.
  • output transducers usually listeners are used, which generate an acoustic output signal.
  • output transducers for generating mechanical vibrations are also known, which directly excite certain parts of the ear, such as the ossicles, to vibrate.
  • output transducers are known which directly stimulate neurons of the ear.

  • An object of the present invention is to specify a method for setting a hearing aid device and a hearing aid device, in which the adaptation of the signal processing to different hearing ranges is improved.
  • the adaptation of the signal processing of the hearing aid to different spatial hearing areas is carried out by setting at least one parameter influencing the signal processing of the hearing aid.
  • a satellite based positioning system is provided for generating a position signal. This is generated and evaluated to automatically adjust the parameter depending on the position signal.
  • the method according to the invention has the advantage that the adjustment of the parameter does not occur manually. Furthermore, it has the advantage that the setting does not depend on the particular hearing situation that is recorded by the input transducer. This is particularly advantageous when the automatic detection of a hearing situation is not clear and thus the hearing aid is operated with a wrong parameter. Another advantage is that no external, specially adapted to the hearing aid transmitter are used, but that the worldwide accessible network of satellites for satellite positioning is used. This has a particularly advantageous effect on the structure of the hearing aid, since the Hearing aid either with an integrated satellite positioning system can be formed in a component or operated with an additional external hearing aid module with a satellite positioning system and can exchange information. Depending on the form of training, the position determination system transmits information about the position of the integrated unit or the hearing aid module.
  • the position signal is transmitted continuously or at intervals pulsed.
  • the former has the advantage that position changes can immediately affect the setting of the parameter, the latter procedure consumes less energy.
  • the information about the position from the position signal in the position determination system itself is determined and transmitted, for example in the form of global coordinates to the signal processing unit.
  • This has the advantage that a conventional positioning system can be used.
  • a kind of raw information is transmitted to the signal processing unit and there the information about the position is extracted.
  • the requirements for the position determining system are lower, so that e.g. a more energy-efficient implementation is possible.
  • One advantage is that the essential calculations are performed with only one signal processing unit, namely that of the hearing aid, so that the calculation is efficiently controlled and e.g. can only be done if necessary.
  • the adjustment of the parameter causes a signal processing that is adapted to an acoustic situation in the listening area.
  • the acoustic situation can be determined, for example, by acoustic signals which are to be processed optimally. For example, in a TV room on the TV adapted output signal to be generated in a conference room especially input signals from interlocutors are optimally processed or on a sports field to different hearing programs are set at different locations.
  • the adjustment of the parameter is part of a hearing program setting of a hearing program, which is stored in particular in the signal processing unit of the hearing aid. Accordingly, the method may set a set of parameters that together define the listening program.
  • a hearing program is to be understood as meaning both a permanently set amplification profile and a functional signal processing which continuously adapts to further environmental parameters.
  • At least one of the auditory regions is defined in its two- or three-dimensional extent. That is, a spatial area, such as the living room, or an area, such as a soccer field, is e.g. defined with its boundary coordinates or via a geometry with respect to a reference point. The listening area will then be given an adjustment of the parameter, i. e.g. a value or function.
  • the extent of the hearing range can be entered using global coordinates, for example, by means of a hearing aid programming unit.
  • at least one position of the satellite-supported position-determining system can be stored in order to hold, for example, the corner coordinates of the soccer field.
  • the parameter setting is maintained until the position signal indicates a position outside the listening area. For example, when leaving the listening area, "TV room" can be automatically switched back to a previously used parameter setting. Alternatively, it is possible to switch to a parameter setting based on an automatic analysis of the hearing situation. Alternatively, furthermore, a parameter setting can be maintained so long after leaving a first audible range until a position signal indicates a position within a second audible range, so that when changing to this second audible range, the operation of the hearing aid with at least one new parameter setting.
  • the position determination with the satellite-based positioning system is differential, i. using a reference unit that reports runtime errors in the satellite signal.
  • a delay compensation can be calculated due to different influence of different frequency bands.
  • a higher accuracy can be achieved via a so-called assisted position determination, for example by using signals from the mobile network.
  • information about an orientation of the hearing aid in two or three dimensions is taken into account as additional information when setting the parameter.
  • This can be done for example by a compass and / or a tilt sensor.
  • the parameter setting is made dependent on whether eye contact exists to the acoustic source (for example, high / low gain) or whether the user looks away from the sound source (eg low / high gain).
  • the embodiment of the hearing aid in which the satellite-based position determination system is housed in a hearing aid module, further has, for example, the advantage that the hearing aid module can be stored in a listening area in order to provide the user with the appropriate parameter setting during signal processing despite leaving the listening area , For example, if an audio signal from a TV is used directly as an input signal, then the audio signal can be processed with a parameter adapted to the television also outside the listening area.

  • the positioning system 9 receives radio frequency signals from a plurality of satellites 19 and determines from these signals his current position.
  • the information about the position is transmitted as a position signal S (X, Y, Z) to the signal processing 5.
  • Additional information which may influence the setting of the parameter is, for example, the orientation of the head-mounted component of the hearing aid 1. This is measured for example via a compass 13. Additionally or alternatively, the orientation may be determined via a tilt sensor 15 in a vertical plane.
  • Such sensors can be integrated into a hearing aid 1 without much effort.
  • the orientation of the hearing aid and thus, for example, the viewing direction of a user of the hearing aid 1 can now be determined and thus set in relation to a sound source whose spatial position is also known. The thus recognized acoustic situation can be evaluated in such a way that optimum adjustment of the signal processing is ensured by setting the parameter.
  • the dependence of the parameter on the position signal can for example be entered with a programming unit 17.
  • the programming can be carried out, for example, via the normal hearing device programming interface, eg also wirelessly according to the Bluetooth standard.
  • the dependence can also be stored as a functional assignment, so that, for example, with increasing distance from a location, the amplification of the signal processing 5 is increased. This corresponds to a parameter setting due to a relative change in the position of the positioning system to a predetermined coordinate.
  • listening areas can be defined, ie areas or volumes can be defined in which a specific value is to be taken by the parameter. If all parameters of a hearing program are defined for a listening area, then this hearing area is as it were assigned a hearing program. Once the user or the positioning system stops in this listening area, then takes place signal processing according to the hearing program.

  • the transmitter 23 transmits a hearing aid 25 (carrier not shown) according to the invention within the listening area A in addition an error signal 27, wherein the error signal 27 runtime error of the satellite signals of the satellite 19 includes.
  • the error signal 27 is generated using a satellite-based reference positioning system 29. Due to the fixed position of the external transmitter 23, erroneous transit times can be calculated by matching the known position of the transmitter 23 with the received signals from the satellites 19.
  • the improvement of the accuracy with the aid of a ground station is also referred to as differential position determination.
