Pre-Amplifier and Noise Cancellation: For an Intelligibility-Enhancing Automatic Volume Control System

This Bachelor graduation project has the goal to create a device which is able of automatic volume control, to be used for enhancing speech intelligibility. To tackle the intelligibility of speech through Public Address Systems (PA Systems), an Intelligibility-Enhancing Automatic Volume Control system was proposed. The total system to be made...

Interferer selection for binaural cue preservation in joint binaural linearly constrained minimum variance beamforming

Spatial cues allow a listener to determine the direction sound is coming from. In addition, recognising spatially separated sound sources facilitate the listener to focus on specific sound sources. Because of this, preservation of spatial cues in multi-microphone hearing assistive devices is important to the listening experience and safety of...
