Abstract

Cochlear implant (CI) recipients are limited in their perception of voice cues, such as the fundamental frequency (F0). This has important consequences for speech recognition when several talkers speak simultaneously. This examination considered the comparison of clear speech and noise-vocoded sentences as maskers. For the speech maskers it could be shown that good CI performers are able to benefit from F0 differences between target and masker. This was due to the fact that a F0 difference of 80 Hz significantly reduced target-masker confusions, an effect that was slightly more pronounced in bimodal than in bilateral users.
