A method selects a communication status for a first mobile terminal. The first mobile terminal assumes a 'slave' status during a first time period and waits to see whether, by a communication request from another mobile terminal to the first mobile terminal, a connection is set up to the other mobile terminal. If a connection is set up, the first mobile terminal constantly assumes the 'slave' status and the other mobile terminal constantly assumes a &#x201c;master&#x201d; status. After the first time period without a communication request from another mobile terminal, the first mobile terminal switches from the &#x201c;slave&#x201d; status to the &#x201c;master&#x201d; status for a second time period and sends a number of communication requests to set up a connection to another mobile terminal and, if a connection is set up in this way, constantly assumes the &#x201c;master&#x201d; status and the other mobile terminal constantly assumes the &#x201c;slave&#x201d; status.

Method and system for selecting a communication status for at least one mobile terminal

A method operates a hearing device system that contains a hearing device and a database system, which is separate from the hearing device and is set up for communication with the hearing device. The method includes ascertaining a piece of location information for a current position of the hearing device and the location information is transmitted to the database. The database then ascertains whether an electronic device that is separate from the hearing device is situated at a prescribed physical distance from the hearing device. The presence of the separate electronic device within the prescribed physical distance is taken as a basis by the database system for creating for the hearing device a parameter set that contains a number of parameters pertaining to the signal processing of audible signals in the hearing device. This parameter set is used by the hearing device for the purpose of signal processing.
