Abstract: A hearing device includes an input converter, a signal processing unit and an output converter. The signal processing unit has a filter bank for dividing an input signal into a plurality of signal components in different frequency bands, a processing unit for processing the signal components, and a synthesis unit for synthesizing the processed signal components into an output signal. In order to limit the level of an output signal, a level detector is disposed upstream of the synthesis unit and is configured to determine a signal level based on the signal components and to output a level signal. A level limiter, at which the level signal is transmitted, is disposed downstream of the synthesis unit and is configured to limit the level of the output signal in dependence on the level signal. A method for signal processing in a hearing device is also provided.

Abstract: A hearing aid has at least two input transducers and at least one output transducer. The input transducers generate an input signal from a sound signal from the surroundings. At least two directional signals with different directional characteristics are formed from the input signals and the directional signals are examined for the presence of a useful signal. A first weighting factor is assigned to the directional signal with the largest signal component of the useful signal and a second weighting factor is assigned to the other directional signals. The directional signals are multiplied by the respectively assigned weighting factor, and an output signal is then formed from the multiplication result. The output signal is converted into a sound signal by the output transducer.
