What does channels mean on a hearing aid?

In telecommunication, a band – sometimes called a frequency band – is a specific range of frequencies in the radio frequency (RF) spectrum , which is divided among ranges from very low frequencies (vlf) to extremely high frequencies (ehf). Each band has a defined upper and lower frequency limit.

The Band setting is the signal frequency channel used by the TV when connecting with other Wi-Fi® devices using the Screen Mirroring or Wi-Fi Direct™ features . Note: The recommended frequency channels are CH1, CH6 and CH11.

A frequency is the number of times per second that a radio signal oscillates. 1 MHz, for instance, means one million complete cycles per second. This is a frequency at the center of the AM broadcast band. A channel—at least in the context of analog radio systems—refers to a range of frequencies .

A channel is a filter that covers a range of frequencies that is analyzed, processed, and reproduced by the hearing aid in the same manner . For example, a broadband or single channel hearing aid with a bandwidth between 100 Hz and 8000 Hz treats all incoming sounds within that frequency range as one sound.
