Abstract (en)
There is provided a method for providing hearing assistance to a user (16) wearing a hearing device (12R, 12L), comprising: capturing, by a microphone arrangement (40) of the hearing device (12R, 12L), a local sound comprising the user's own voice at a location of the user, to provide an own voice signal; transmitting the own voice signal from the hearing device to a remote microphone device (14) at a location remote from the user; capturing, by a microphone arrangement (28) of the remote microphone device (14), a remote sound at the location of the remote microphone device (14) to provide a remote audio signal; processing, by the remote microphone device, the remote audio signal so as to generate an output audio signal, taking into account the received own voice signal in a manner so as to reduce a signal contribution of the user's own voice in the output audio signal; transmitting the output audio signal from the remote microphone device to the hearing device; and stimulating, by the hearing device, the user's hearing based on the received output audio signal.
