Head shadow enhancement with low-frequency beamforming improves sound localization and speech perception for simulated bimodal listeners
Many hearing-impaired listeners struggle to localize sounds due to poor availability of binaural cues. Listeners with a cochlear implant and a contralateral hearing aid - so-called bimodal listeners - are amongst the worst performers, as both interaural time and level differences are poorly transmitted
