Abstract
Determination of Tinnitus (defined as a phantom auditory
sensation) characteristics concerning sound type, level,
bandwidth or frequency are one of the steps in the measurement
protocol. A novel technique to measure Tinnitus parameters is
proposed. It is based on a computer application designed as an
auditory display for easier identification of the perceived
Tinnitus. The proposed method utilizes sound synthesis
employing a special graphical user interface to facilitate sound
generation and identification. The method was verified during
preliminary tests organized with participation of people
suffering from Tinnitus and compared with the classical
audiometry-based measurements. The obtained results are
presented and discussed in the paper.
