HEARING AIDS WITH ADAPTIVE BEAMFORMER RESPONSIVE TO OFF-AXIS SPEECH |
摘要 |
A hearing assistance system includes an adaptive directionality controller to control a target direction for sound reception. The adaptive directionality controller includes a beamformer, a speech detector to detect off-axis speech being speech that is not from the target direction, and a steering module to steer the beamformer in response to a detection of the off-axis speech. |

1. A hearing assistance system for receiving and processing sounds with control of directionality of sound reception, comprising:
a processor configured to process the received sounds and including an adaptive directionality controller configured to control a target direction of the sound reception using a beamformer, the adaptive directionality controller configured to:
detect off-axis speech being a speech that is not from the target direction; andsteer the beamformer to reduce cancellation of the off-axis speech by the beamformer in response to a detection of the off-axis speech. |
