This paper presents a smartphone-based binaural hearing aid architecture for improving the speech intelligibility of hearing aid users. The proposed system consists of an earpiece, a smartphone and an application that performs real-time speech enhancement. The speaker's voice, which is picked up by the microphone of the earpiece that is worn on the ear, is transmitted to the smartphone via wireless technology. After the speech intelligibility is improved in real time by the deep learning speech enhancement application, it is returned to the earpiece and generates sound. Deep learning speech enhancement algorithms can be used without performing burdensome calculations on the processors in the hearing aid. The results showed that the average usage of the central processing unit in the smartphone was approximately 26%, and the signal-to-noise ratios improve by at least 20%. The presented objective and subjective results show that the proposed method achieves comparatively more noise suppression without distorting the audio.
