A great proportion of the human population suffers from hearing loss. Hearing loss is not just a technical loss of volume. Hearing deficiency increases sensitivity and reduces tolerance to certain sounds. Hearing loss is a measure of shift in the auditory system compared to that of a normal ear for detection of a pure tone. But with the availability of modern-day technologies and the recent developments, artificial hearing aid systems can be designed that relax the job of damaged auditory systems to a great extent and make much of the sound available to the hearing impaired. In this project, the simulation of the simple digital hearing aid is developed using MATLAB programming language. The implementation of this configurable digital hearing aid (DHA) system includes noise reduction filter, frequency-dependent amplification and amplitude compression. Through this project there is- reduction of white Gaussian noise, increase in the gain for frequencies which were difficult to hear, and shape the amplitude to prevent any of the frequencies from becoming too loud. This digital hearing aid system is designed to adapt for mild and moderate hearing loss patients since different gain can be set to map different levels of hearing loss. Finally, future trends and expected innovations in the hearing aid industry are discussed.
