Abstract
Digital signal processing has been applied to a variety of signal types. In this presentation, material will be presented to describe homomorphic digital signal processing techniques which were originally used to restore old sound recordings. Audio demonstrations will be presented of the recorded voice of Enrique Caruso before and after restoration, and then again after the orchestra is electronically removed by digital signal processing techniques. These established techniques will then be modified and applied to the problem of designing a digital hearing aid guided by the physiological characteristics of the human hearing system. Results will be presented for application of digital signal processing techniques to show the improvement available through using a multiplicative AGC (automatic gain control), directional noise suppression and adaptive noise suppression. These techniques are now being implemented in newly released digital hearing aids.
