    Abstract: Each listening device of a binaural listening system comprises a signal processing unit for processing a signal comprising audio and for performing logic actions based on one or more control inputs, and an antenna and transceiver unit for establishing said wireless link. The transceiver unit comprises a transmit control unit allowing the transmission of first data with a first level of transmission power providing a first operating transmission range and the transmission of second data with a second level of transmission power providing a second operating transmission range, wherein said second operating transmission range is larger than said first operating transmission range. Receive control units of the listening devices are adapted to extract the first control signal from the first data received from the respective opposite listening device.

    Abstract: A hearing aid device comprising a behind-the-ear part, an at-the-head part, a coupling element, a second antenna, and a wireless interface is disclosed. The behind-the-ear part is adapted for being arranged at an ear of a user and for providing a low frequency signal comprising audio. The at-the-head part is adapted for being arranged at the head of the user. The at-the-head part includes a first antenna adapted to communicate with an implant part comprising at least one cochlear electrode adapted for being arranged in the cochlea in proximity of an auditory nerve of the user. The coupling element couples the behind-the-ear part and the at-the-head part and is adapted for transmitting the low frequency signal comprising audio to the at-the-head part. The second antenna is adapted for communicating at high frequency with an external unit. The wireless interface is adapted for receiving and/or sending data via the second antenna. The at-the-head part is adapted for providing the low frequency signal comprising audio to the at least one cochlear electrode. The at least one cochlear electrode is adapted for converting the low frequency signal comprising audio to an output signal perceivable by a user as sound. The coupling element comprises an electrically conducting element coupled to the wireless interface. The electrically conducting element is at least a part of the second antenna and adapted for transferring the signal comprising audio at a low frequency from the behind-the-ear part to the at-the-head part and for transmitting and/or receiving high frequency signals via the second antenna.

    Abstract: The invention relates to an audio assist system, comprising a hearing aid, an external handheld device and an audio system comprising a Bluetooth audio transmitter, wherein the hearing aid comprises a Bluetooth receiver. The hearing aid and the external handheld device are temporarily connected via a wireless data link, and both the audio system and the external handheld device each comprise an infrared receiver and/or transmitter for establishing an at least unidirectional IR link between the external handheld device and the audio system. The external handheld device is adapted to transmit an automatic Bluetooth pairing trigger signal to the hearing aid via the wireless data link, when the external handheld device receives and/or transmits an IR signal via the IR link from or to the audio system, respectively, and the hearing aid is configured to perform Bluetooth pairing with the Bluetooth audio transmitter in response to receiving the automatic Bluetooth pairing trigger signal from said external handheld device.
