Advantages of a non-linear frequency compression algorithm in noise

A multichannel non-linear frequency compression algorithm was evaluated in comparison to conventional amplification hearing aids using a test of speech understanding in noise (Oldenburger Satztest—OLSA) and subjective questionnaires. The new algorithm compresses frequencies above a pre-calculated cu...
