Abstract:
A wireless communication method of a hearing aid includes extracting an audio signal through a first hearing aid, determining a beam forming vector as a beam toward a rear of a user wearing the first hearing aid and a second hearing aid. The method may also include pre-coding of the audio signal using the beam forming vector, and transmitting the pre-coded audio signal to the second hearing aid through a first antenna. The first hearing aid may include the first antenna and the second hearing aid includes a second antenna.
Abstract:
Provided is a switched-capacitor integrator, a method of operating the switched-capacitor integrator, and apparatuses including the switched-capacitor integrator. The switched-capacitor integrator including an amplifier including a first input terminal, a second input terminal, and an output terminal, a first capacitor disposed between the first input terminal and the output terminal, and a switched capacitor circuit configured to sample an input signal in response to control signals, and to integrate a difference between a feedback signal and the input signal while sampling the input signal.
Abstract:
A hearing apparatus and method for measuring a distance between an eardrum and the hearing apparatus are provided. The hearing apparatus may include a signal output unit configured to output a first measurement signal, a signal identification unit configured to receive a second measurement signal, and a distance determination unit configured to determine the distance between the user's eardrum and the hearing apparatus.
Abstract:
A hearing apparatus includes a coil and a coil operation mode selector configured to select either a first coil operation mode for communicating with a wireless communication terminal, or a second coil operation mode for wirelessly charging a battery of the hearing apparatus.
