Definitions
- the present invention relates to a hearing aid with a plurality of microphones, a decision device for deciding whether one of the microphones is defective, and a signal processing device for processing the signals of the microphones with a plurality of processing algorithms.
- a hearing device here means any sound-emitting device that can be worn on or in the ear or on the head, in particular a hearing aid, a headset, headphones and the like.
- Hearing aids are portable hearing aids that are used to care for the hearing impaired.
- different types of hearing aids such as behind-the-ear hearing aids (BTE), hearing aid with external receiver (RIC: receiver in the canal) and in-the-ear hearing aids (IDO), e.g. Concha hearing aids or canal hearing aids (ITE, CIC).
- BTE behind-the-ear hearing aids
- RIC hearing aid with external receiver
- IDO in-the-ear hearing aids
- ITE canal hearing aids
- the hearing aids listed by way of example are worn on the outer ear or in the ear canal.
- bone conduction hearing aids, implantable or vibrotactile hearing aids are also available on the market. The stimulation of the damaged hearing takes place either mechanically or electrically.
- Hearing aids have in principle as essential components an input transducer, an amplifier and an output transducer.
- the input transducer is usually a sound receiver, z. As a microphone, and / or an electromagnetic receiver, for. B. an induction coil.
- the output transducer is usually used as an electroacoustic transducer, z. As miniature speaker, or as an electromechanical transducer, z. B. bone conduction, realized.
- the amplifier is usually integrated in a signal processing unit. This basic structure is in FIG. 1 shown using the example of a behind-the-ear hearing aid. In a hearing aid housing 1 for carrying behind the ear are one or more microphones 2 to Built-in sound recording from the environment.
- a signal processing unit 3 which is also integrated in the hearing aid housing 1, processes the microphone signals and amplifies them.
- the output signal of the signal processing unit 3 is transmitted to a loudspeaker or earpiece 4, which outputs an acoustic signal.
- the sound is optionally transmitted via a sound tube, which is fixed with an earmold in the ear canal, to the eardrum of the device carrier.
- the power supply of the hearing device and in particular the signal processing unit 3 is effected by a likewise integrated into the hearing aid housing 1 battery. 5
- Modern hearing aids often have two or more microphones, so that the signal processing can evaluate two or more microphone signals. If one of the required microphone signals fails, the corresponding hearing aid algorithms are operated with a signal constellation which is not provided in the design of the signal processing. This causes a performance penalty in noise reduction and reduces the sound quality. In addition, speech intelligibility diminishes in environmental noise.
- the failure of a microphone signal can be different in nature. Either the failure permanently due to a mechanical defect, a gradual deterioration by the aging of the microphones or only temporarily due to a dirty microphone opening or a partial occlusion of the hearing aid z. B. by hair, hat or scarf.
- Starkey a self-check mode of a hearing aid is known in which the hearing aid wearer can put the hearing aid by a mechanical action in a state in which the hearing aid by means of a functional test itself checks.
- a stimulus is emitted by the hearing aid to test among other things, the hearing aid microphone and the speaker.
- the self-test must be triggered by a user action and a constant control during the hearing aid operation does not take place.
- a detection circuit is used to monitor the operational status of at least one transducer by measuring the output energy level of the transducer and comparing it to a predetermined threshold level. The detection circuit generates an error message when the measured output energy level drops below the threshold level.
- the publication WO 00/65873 relates to a microphone system with multiple microphones for a hearing aid.
- the microphone system allows programmable resistors to operate in different operating modes and to adapt the sensitivity of microphones to different hearing aids during manufacture.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to be able to make better use of a hearing aid in the event of partial failure or complete failure of one of several microphones at least temporarily.
- this object is achieved by a hearing device with a plurality of microphones, a decision device for deciding whether one of the microphones is defective, and a signal processing device for processing the signals of the microphones with a plurality of processing algorithms, wherein the signal processing device automatically from a first of the processing algorithms in a second Processing algorithms switch when it is decided by the decision device that one of the microphones is defective.
- the hearing in case of failure of a microphone in a defined mode continuing to drive.
- Such an emergency program will usually provide a better sound quality of the hearing than undefined signal processing.
- a "defective microphone” is here also understood to mean a microphone which is covered, for example, by hair, headgear or soiling.
- the first signal processing algorithm is designed for multi-channel processing and the second signal processing algorithm for single-channel processing, and the signal processing device switches from the multi-channel processing algorithm to the single-channel processing algorithm if one of the microphones is defective. In this way it can be avoided that an undefined channel signal contributes to the output signal.
- the signal processing device may be configured to disable a multi-channel processing algorithm when one of the microphones is defective.
- the decision device can have a level meter with which the levels of the microphone signals are measured in order to derive a decision therefrom.
- a prediction method can additionally be used: one microphone signal is estimated from the other. If the prediction coefficients in their temporal and / or spectral distribution deviate too much from the expected ones, there is a failure of a microphone. The combination of a level meter and a prediction analysis makes it relatively easy to conclude that a microphone has failed.
- One of the processing algorithms can realize a directional microphone mode and another an omnidirectional mode, wherein the decision device switches into the omnidirectional mode if one of the microphones is defective.
- the directional microphone is only utilized if there are actually at least two useful evaluable microphone signals.
- the hearing device according to the invention may comprise a memory device with which a decision of the decision device can be logged together with a time information. As a result, for example, later by an acoustician understandable, at what time and how often (loose contact) a microphone has failed.
- the second processing algorithm which is switched in the event of a microphone defect, starting from the first processing algorithm, is explicitly not tuned to the first processing algorithm.
- a switching of the hearing device by the user is usually audible. In this way, the user can easily recognize when a microphone fails.
- the signal processing device can automatically generate a warning signal for warning the user when automatically switching over the processing algorithms. Such a warning signal makes the user even easier to detect the failure of a microphone.
- a spectral reference curve for one or more of the microphones for deciding on a defect can be stored in the decision device. This makes it possible to reliably monitor the spectral sensitivity of a microphone when, for example, an averaged signal spectrum is obtained from the microphone.
- FIG. 2 reproduced block diagram shows at the signal input two microphones 10 and 11.
- the microphone signals are fed to a signal processing device 12.
- the signal processing device 12 has a multi-channel processing algorithm 13 (here two-channel). It is suitable for directional microphones.
- the signal processing device 12 has a single-channel processing algorithm 14. It is fed either by the microphone signal of one microphone 10 or by the microphone signal of the other microphone 11. Which microphone signal is forwarded to the single-channel processing algorithm 14 is determined by a switch 15.
- the changeover switch 15 is triggered by a decision device 16 which performs a signal comparison or a signal monitoring of the two microphone signals of the microphones 10 and 11.
- the decision device 16 decides whether a microphone failure exists or not. In this case, it measures the levels of the microphone signals and compares them with stored reference curves RK.
- the decision device 16 outputs which of the two microphones 10, 11 is defective. Accordingly, the changeover switch 15 is activated. However, the output signal of the decision device 16 is also used for a further changeover switch 17, which is connected downstream of the signal processing device 12. At the input of the further changeover switch 17 is the output signal of the two-channel processing algorithm 13 and the single-channel processing algorithm 14. If the decision device 16 has decided that one of the microphones 10, 11 has failed, the changeover switch 17 switches from two-channel operation to single-channel operation. This means here that instead of the output signal of the two-channel processing algorithm 13, but the output of the single-channel processing algorithm 14 to the output-side speaker 18 is continued. Possibly. the output signal of the decision device 16 can be used in addition to the control of the two switches 15 and 17 in addition to generate an error message 19 or a service request.
- the hearing aid it is thus possible to automatically detect a failure of one of the microphone signals and to switch the signal processing into an emergency operation.
- the emergency operation here is that only a microphone signal to preserve the sound quality is processed, as in a hearing aid, in the house of only a microphone signal is present.
- signal algorithms that rely on two or more microphone signals are either deactivated or, if possible, replaced by their single-channel counterpart (eg, a dual-microphone noise reduction algorithm (DMG) replaced by single-microphone Noise reduction algorithm (SMG)).
- DMG dual-microphone noise reduction algorithm
- SMG single-microphone Noise reduction algorithm
- the automatic detection of a signal failure on one of the microphones can be realized via integrated in the hearing aid level meter. Is the comparison of one of the two signal levels on average much lower than z. B.
- the appropriate hearing aid algorithms should be switched or blended over an additional control variable and not remain in an undefined state.
- the directional microphone can be explicitly set in the "Omni mode"
- the corresponding feedback path can be switched off for simplification or - as already mentioned -
- the two-channel DMG can be replaced by the simplified SMG approach.
- algorithms that are not adapted to each other are used, which give the hearing aid wearer an indication of the malfunction. Possibly. Again, support can be provided by an explicit warning signal.
- a level comparison is advisable to deposit a reference curve for the microphones in the hearing, then either by means of a long-term spectrum on any microphone signal or by the spectral distribution of a certain known, stored in the hearing aid and preferably in normal use automatically (eg Power-on melody) or user-initiated (eg, program switch acknowledge signal), and resume the microphone behavior on each reboot or at a defined time (eg, after program switchover).
- a reference curve for the microphones in the hearing then either by means of a long-term spectrum on any microphone signal or by the spectral distribution of a certain known, stored in the hearing aid and preferably in normal use automatically (eg Power-on melody) or user-initiated (eg, program switch acknowledge signal), and resume the microphone behavior on each reboot or at a defined time (eg, after program switchover).
- the curves could additionally be weighted according to dBA or loudness, to intervene only when the hearing aid wearer perceptually senses a change.
- the feedback to the hearing aid wearer via such an emergency operation can be made visually via an LED on the hearing aid or on a (preferably wirelessly) connected peripheral device, by an optical text message on a peripheral device and / or acoustically by a corresponding warning message by means of tones (eg in the case of repetition the next time the hearing aid is switched on via another welcome melody) or text message.
- a particular advantage of the invention lies in the constant monitoring and evaluation of the microphone signals, in order then to switch over to a single-microphone emergency program when needed during operation.
