of Multi-band Compression in Hearing Aids on Dynamic Range Improvement |
Abstract
Effects of numbers of bands in multi-band compression hearing aids are investigated in this paper. Significant improvement in the performance of the AFC system is demonstrated via computer simulations based on different hearing loss characteristics. Moreover, the increment of the dynamic range of hearing when employing multi-band compression hearing aids is shown, as compared to that of conventional hearing aids.
