Abstract:
A hearing aid device that is configured to be inserted into the bony region of an ear canal includes a receiver, a microphone, a processor for processing sound signals detected by the microphone, and a feedback suppressor for carrying out electronic feedback suppression by applying at least one of a frequency shift and a time delay to the sound signals detected by the microphone. The hearing aid device may be configured to carry out the electronic feedback suppression including at least one of the frequency shift and the time delay as function of the frequency of the detected sound signals.

Claim (Index 11):
A method for providing electronic feedback reduction in a hearing aid device configured to be inserted into the ear canal, which housing comprises a receiver and at least one microphone and a processor for processing sound signals detected by at least one microphone, the hearing aid device being configured to detect the activity of the voice of the user of the hearing aid device, the method comprising:\n detecting the activity of the voice of the user of the hearing aid device; detecting the frequency of the detected sound signals; and carrying out electronic feedback suppression by applying a frequency shift and/or a time delay, wherein the electronic feedback suppression is carried out in a first mode when the voice of the user of the hearing aid device is active, and in a different mode when the voice of the user of the hearing aid device is inactive.
