Abstract:
A method operates a hearing device. A first input signal is generated by a first input transducer of the hearing device from an ambient sound signal. An external input transducer outside of the hearing device generates an external input signal from the ambient sound signal. A relative transfer function from the external input transducer to the hearing device with respect to a target signal source is ascertained based on the first input signal and/or external input signal. The external input signal is filtered by the relative transfer function, thereby generating an estimated target signal. Noise suppression takes place in the hearing device based on the estimated target signal.

Claim (Index 14):
The method according to  claim 13 , which further comprises;\n generating a second directional signal based on the estimated target signal and the first input signal; generating the output signal based on the second directional signal; and generating, via the output transducer of the hearing device, the output sound signal from the output signal.
