Problems solved by technology

The actual mounting position and orientation of the antenna as well as deviations from the calculated optimal orientation (maximum value of the normal distribution) cause large losses compared to the theoretically possible data transmission

Embodiment Construction

[0052] figure 2 Schematic representation of a CIC hearing instrument according to the invention with a proximal antenna. Such a hearing device 21 is placed in the ear canal of a person. As already explained above, the external auditory canal concerned comprises a distal section 10 and a proximal section 11 . The track of the external auditory canal has a first curved portion 13 and a narrower second curved portion 14 .

[0053] The hearing device 21 is pushed forward into the region of the second bend 14 of the ear canal. It comprises a housing 22 in which a signal processing device 23 and an earphone 25 are mounted in its distal section. The output end of the earphone 25 is connected with the sound transmission channel 26 . The sound transmission channel 26 conducts the output signal of the earphone 25 in the direction of the eardrum 12 . For the sake of clarity, other components, such as power supply and electrical connection device, are omitted in the figure.

Abstract

The invention relates to a binaural hearing instrument and an earpiece. The binaural hearing instrument and an earpiece for the binaural hearing instrument are enabled for broadband wireless data transmission to a further binaural hearing instrument. Wireless broadband binaural data transmission with high bandwidth and low resource requirement is afforded, while the devices can be manufactured easily and inexpensively. The hearing instrument has a housing, a signal processor, a receiver and an antenna for binaural data transmission. The housing can be worn at least partly in an auditory canal. A distal section houses the signal processor and the receiver. A proximal section adjacent to the eardrum and separated spatially from the proximal section houses the antenna. The antenna is disposed between the receiver and the sound outlet as far in the auditory canal as possible. The distance between the antennas of the two binaural hearing instruments is reduced by 1 to 2cm. regulated minimum distance is guaranteed between the antennas and the earpiece and th hybrid and compared with conventional positioning and the bit error rate is significantly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a binaural hearing device and an earpiece for a binaural hearing device, which enable broadband wireless transmission of data to another binaural hearing device. Background technique [0002] The hearing device can be designed, for example, as a hearing aid. Hearing aids are used to provide hearing-impaired persons with ambient sound signals, which are processed and amplified in order to compensate or treat the respective hearing impairment. A hearing instrument consists in principle of one or more input converters, signal processing means, amplifiers and output converters. The input transducer is usually an acoustic receiver, such as a microphone, and / or an electromagnetic receiver, such as an induction coil. The output converter is generally designed as an electroacoustic converter, such as a small loudspeaker, or as an electromagnetic converter, such as a bone conduction sound earphone. It is also called a headset or earp...
