title: Speech perception through FM auditory trainers in noise and reverberation.
abstract: Speech perception through FM auditory trainers was explored in conditions of noise and reverberation. Special attention was paid to the mode of transmission and individual capabilities of various commercially-available units to handle speech in noise and reverberation. Results indicate an overwhelming advantage of FM transmission for maintaining speech intelligibility in noise and reverberation, irrespective of the instrument.
