Abstract:
A binaural hearing system includes a binaural pair of microphones that are configured to be located, respectively, at a first ear and a second ear of a user. The system further includes an interconnected binaural pair of sound processors that are associated with the binaural pair of microphones. The binaural pair of sound processors are configured to preserve, to a partial degree for each of the first and second ears of the user, an interaural level difference (“ILD”) between a first signal generated by the first microphone and a second signal generated by the second microphone. The sound processors do this by performing a contralateral gain synchronization operation to a first partial degree with respect to the first and second signals at the first sound processor, and to a second partial degree with respect to the first and second signals at the second sound processor.

Claim (Index 9):
The binaural hearing system of  claim 7 , wherein:\n the data representative of the dynamic listening scenario indicates a magnitude of the ILD between the first and second signals; and the binaural pair of sound processors is configured to determine the first partial degree to which the contralateral gain synchronization operation is to be performed at the first sound processor and the second partial degree to which the contralateral gain synchronization operation is to be performed at the second sound processor based on the magnitude of the ILD between the first and second signals.
