ESTIMATEUR DE NIVEAU ADAPTATIF, DISPOSITIF AUDITIF, PROCÉDÉ ET SYSTÈME AUDITIF BINAURICULAIRE

摘要

A hearing device, e.g. a hearing aid comprising an adaptive level estimator for providing a level estimate of an electric input signal representing sound is provided. The adaptive level estimator comprises• a first level estimator configured to provide a first level estimate of the electric input signal in a first number K1 of frequency bands;• a second level estimator configured to provide attack/release time constants associated with a second level estimate of the electric input signal in a second number K2 of frequency bands, wherein K2 is smaller than K1; and• a level control unit configured to provide a resulting level estimate based on said first level estimates and said attack/release time constants associated with said second level estimates.
