<p>The present invention combines audio compression (340, 440, 540, 640) and feedback cancellation (350, 450, 550, 650) in an audio system such as a hearing aid. The feedback cancellation element of the present invention uses one or more filters (206, 212) to model the feedback path (222) of the system and thereby subtract the expected feedback from the audio input signal (100) before hearing aid processing occurs (240). The hearing aid processing includes audio compression, for example multiband compression. The operation of the audio compression element may be responsive to information (406) gleaned from the feedback cancellation element, the feedback cancellation may be responsive to information (506) gleaned from the compression element, or both (606).</p> |
