ABSTRACT:
An improved sound processor, with particular application to stimulation of implanted electrode arrays, such as cochlear implants. The processor channelizes received sound signals into at least ten analysis channels to produce amplitude signals for each channel. A predefined number of channels with the largest amplitude are used to modulate stimuli for the implanted array. The predefined number is at least four, and less than or equal to half the number of analysis channels.
