Abstract
A listening device system includes two listening devices, each having its own separate housing. The first device includes an input transducer housed within the housing for converting an input sound to an electrical input signal which includes a direct and an acoustic feedback part, and a feedback cancellation system. The feedback cancellation system includes an adaptive FBC filter including a variable FBC filter part, and an FBC update algorithm part for updating the variable FBC filter part. The FBC update algorithm part receives first and second input signals influenced by the electrical input and the electrical output signals. The second listening device includes an input transducer housed within its housing producing an electrical update signal essentially consisting of the direct part of said electrical input signal. The update signal is conveyed from the second device to the first device, where feedback cancellation parameters are adjusted based on that signal.
