Abstract

See full text

The signal quality in a hearing apparatus and in particular in a hearing device featuring a plurality of input channels is to be improved. Provision is made for this purpose for a hearing apparatus with a plurality of input channel systems each for recording and preprocessing an input signal and for outputting a channel signal each and a central computing device for processing a plurality of channel signals of the input channel systems. At least one of the plurality of input channel systems can be controlled by the central computing device as a function of at least two of the plurality of channel signals. Local weighting or deactivation of input channel components can be performed by means of this feedback using central information from the computing device. The latter case additionally allows for power consumption to be reduced.
