| Aim: To give the student an understanding of normal and impaired human sound perception with a view to evaluating speech and music communication systems, for example auditoria, loudspeaker installations, hearing aids, telephones and bitrate reduction systems. |
| Contents: The course is related to the technical and psychoacoustical aspects of a situation where persons speak to each other. The communication may be in a room or through an electroacoustic communication system such as a telephone or a hearing aid. The major topics in the course are physiological principles of hearing and speech production, psychoacoustics (hearing threshold, loudness, masking etc), psychoacoustic measuring methods, speech and speech intelligibility, hearing impairment, principles of hearing aids and hearing aid fitting, hearing conservation and hearing protectors. |
