    • A microphone module (60) is shaped for insertion into a tunnel (40) made through the soft tissue that connects the retro-auricular space (50) with the ear canal (30). A hollow tube (44) may first be chronically or acutely implanted in such tunnel, and the microphone module inserted into the tube. The microphone module contains a microphone (63) located on the distal part (68) of the module close to or inside the ear canal. In some embodiments, a battery or other power source (66) that powers the module, and signal processing circuitry (67) may also be included in the module. In yet other embodiments, the module may include telemetry circuitry (64, 69). In some embodiments, a behind-the-ear (BTE) speech processor connects to a proximal end of the microphone module. Electrical signals produced by the microphone in response to sensed sound waves may be processed, if needed, by the signal processing circuitry, and provided (via telemetry or physical connections) to the BTE speech processor, or other external or implanted hearing aid component, for use by a hearing system (79), e.g., a cochlear implant system, of which the component is a part. The hearing system may be an external, partially implanted, or fully implanted hearing system, such as a cochlear implant system.
    • 麦克风模块(60)被成形为用于插入通过软管组织制成的隧道(40),所述软组织将回耳孔(50)与耳道(30)连接。 中空管(44)可以首先在这种隧道中长期或急性地植入,并且将麦克风模块插入管中。 麦克风模块包括位于模块的远端部分(68)上的麦克风(63),靠近或在耳道内。 在一些实施例中,为模块供电的电池或其他电源(66)以及信号处理电路(67)也可以包括在模块中。 在其他实施例中,模块可以包括遥测电路(64,69)。 在一些实施例中,耳后(BTE)语音处理器连接到麦克风模块的近端。 由麦克风响应于感测到的声波产生的电信号可以由信号处理电路进行处理,并通过遥测或物理连接提供给BTE语音处理器或其它外部或植入式助听器组件,用于 由听力系统(79)使用,例如耳蜗植入系统,其中组件是其中的一部分。 听力系统可以是外部的,部分植入的或完全植入的听觉系统,例如人工耳蜗植入系统。
