HEARING DEVICE AND A METHOD FOR RECEIVING WIRELESS AUDIO STREAMING
First Claim
1. A method for receiving wireless audio streams in a hearing device, the method comprising:
- receiving audio packages of a primary audio stream from a primary transmitter unit having a primary transmitter unit address;
evaluating a first parameter of the primary audio stream; and
if the first parameter fulfills a search criterion;
searching for pilot packages from available transmitter units;
determining an optimum transmitter unit based on one or more pilot package parameters of the pilot packages from the available transmitter units; and
receiving audio packages of an audio stream from the optimum transmitter unit.

14. A hearing device comprising:
-
an antenna; a receiver unit coupled to the antenna; a processing unit coupled to the receiver unit for receiving data via the antenna; a receiver coupled to an output of the processing unit for conversion of an output signal into an output audio signal; wherein the processing unit is configured to; receive audio packages of a primary audio stream transmitted wirelessly from a primary transmitter unit to the receiver unit, the primary transmitter unit having a primary transmitter unit address; evaluate a first parameter of the primary audio stream; wherein, if the first parameter fulfills a search criterion, the processing unit is configured to; search for pilot packages transmitted wirelessly from available transmitter units to the receiver unit; determine an optimum transmitter unit based on one or more one pilot package parameters of the pilot packages from the available transmitter units; and receive audio packages of an audio stream from the optimum transmitter unit. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16)
