Processing Signals Representative Of Sound Based On The Identity Of An Input Element

Processing Signals Representative Of Sound Based On The Identity Of An Input Element

US Patent:
7599500, Oct 6, 2009
Filed:
Dec 9, 2004
Appl. No.:
11/008869
Inventors:
Philip A. Segel - Englewood CO, US
Tissa Karunasiri - Castaic CA, US
Lakshmi N. Mishra - Valencia CA, US
Assignee:
Advanced Bionics, LLC - Valencia CA
International Classification:
H04R 29/00, H04R 25/00
US Classification:
381 60, 381312, 381314
Abstract:
Systems and techniques for processing signals representative of sound for conveyance to the auditory system of a subject based on the identity of an input device. In one implementation, a method includes identifying an input element to an audiological system that conveys sound information directly to a subject's auditory system, automatically setting parameters for processing the signal based on the identity of the input element, and processing the signal in accordance with the processing parameters. The input element is configured to generate a signal representative of sound.

Adaptive Place-Pitch Ranking Procedure For Optimizing Performance Of A Multi-Channel Neural Stimulator

Adaptive Place-Pitch Ranking Procedure For Optimizing Performance Of A Multi-Channel Neural Stimulator

US Patent:
7493170, Feb 17, 2009
Filed:
Sep 1, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/469758
Inventors:
Philip A Segel - Englewood CO, US
Tracey L Kruger - Chatsworth CA, US
Assignee:
Advnaced Bionics, LLC - Valencia CA
International Classification:
A61N 1/36, A61F 11/04, A61F 11/00
US Classification:
607 57, 607 55, 607 56, 607137, 600559, 381320
Abstract:
An adaptive place-pitch ranking procedure for use with a cochlear implant or other neural stimulation system provides a systematic method for quantifying the magnitude and direction of errors along the place-pitch continuum. The method may be conducted and completed in a relatively short period of time. In use, the implant user or listener is asked to rank the percepts obtained after a sequential presentation of monopolar stimulation pulses are applied to a selected spatially-defined electrode pair. Should the patient's judgment of pitch order be correct for all applied interrogations, then no further testing involving the tested electrode pair (two electrode contacts) is undertaken. However, should there be errors in the place-pitch ranking, which errors evidence perceptual place-confusions, then a search is undertaken for the spread of the perceptual confusion by separating the target channel and competing channel by one electrode contact at a time. This search for the spread of confusion continues until no errors are made in all directions. Identified channels wherein pitch confusion exists may be deselected (not used) during normal operation of the cochlear implant.

Adaptive Place-Pitch Ranking Procedure For Optimizing Performance Of A Multi-Channel Neural Stimulator

US Patent:
7571005, Aug 4, 2009
Filed:
Sep 1, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/469820
Inventors:
Philip A Segel - Englewood CO, US
Tracey L. Kruger - Chatsworth CA, US
Leonid M Litvak - Los Angeles CA, US
Assignee:
Advanced Bionics, LLC - Valencia CA
International Classification:
A61N 1/36, A61F 11/04, A61F 11/00
US Classification:
607 57, 607 55, 607 56, 607137, 600559
Abstract:
An adaptive place-pitch ranking procedure for use with a cochlear implant or other neural stimulation system provides a systematic method for quantifying the magnitude and direction of errors along the place-pitch continuum. The method may be conducted and completed in a relatively short period of time. In use, the implant user or listener is asked to rank the percepts obtained after a sequential presentation of monopolar stimulation pulses are applied to a selected spatially-defined electrode pair. The spatially-defined electrode pair may be a physical electrode pair or a virtual electrode pair. A virtual electrode pair includes at least one virtual electrode contact. Should the patient's judgment of pitch order be correct for all applied interrogations, then no further testing involving the tested electrode pair (two electrode contacts) is undertaken. However, should there be errors in the place-pitch ranking, which errors evidence perceptual place-confusions, then a search is undertaken for the spread of the perceptual confusion. This search for the spread of confusion continues until no errors are made in all directions.

System And Method For Fitting A Cochlear Implant Sound Processor Using Alternative Signals

US Patent:
7933657, Apr 26, 2011
Filed:
Oct 13, 2008
Appl. No.:
12/250512
Inventors:
Philip A. Segel - Englewood CO, US
Edward H. Overstreet - Valencia CA, US
Tracey L. Kruger - Valencia CA, US
Lakshmi N. Mishra - Valencia CA, US
Assignee:
Advanced Bionics, LLC - Valencia CA
International Classification:
A61N 1/04
US Classification:
607 57, 607136
Abstract:
Alternative stimuli, i. e. , stimuli other than the constant amplitude stimuli used in prior fitting schemes, are used to set the parameters of a cochlear implant system. The use of such alternative stimuli allows the entire fitting process to be completed in a very short time period, and generally eliminates the need for secondary adjustments. In one preferred embodiment, the alternative stimuli comprise white noise that is internally generated within the speech processor.

In The Ear Auxiliary Microphone System For Behind The Ear Hearing Prosthetic

US Patent:
7970157, Jun 28, 2011
Filed:
Jan 11, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/622319
Inventors:
William Vanbrooks Harrison - Tempe AZ, US
Lee F Hartley - Valencia CA, US
Philip A Segel - Englewood CO, US
C. Geoffrey E Fernald - La Canada CA, US
Scott Crawford - Castaic CA, US
Assignee:
Advanced Bionics, LLC - Valencia CA
International Classification:
H04R 25/00
US Classification:
381330, 381375, 381381
Abstract:
An In The Ear (ITE) microphone improves the acoustic response of a Behind The Ear (BTE) Implantable Cochlear Stimulation (ICS) system during telephone use. An acoustic seal provided by holding a telephone earpiece against the ear provides improved coupling of low frequency (up to about 1 KHz) sound waves, sufficient to overcome losses due to the near field acoustic characteristics common to telephones. In an exemplary embodiment, the ITE microphone is connected to a removable ear hook of the BTE ICS system by a short bendable stalk.
