Relaying sound waves is the function of a  frog's tympanum.    Specifically, the term describes a structure which is located on  the outside of some amphibians, insects and mammals. In frogs, it  is found just behind the frog's eye.
In the anatomy of humans and various other tetrapods, the eardrum, also called the tympanic membrane or myringa, is a thin, cone-shaped membrane that separates the external ear from the middle ear. Its function is to transmit sound from the air to the ossicles inside the middle ear, and then to the oval window in the fluid-filled cochlea. Hence, it ultimately converts and amplifies vibration in air to vibration in fluid. The malleus bone bridges the gap between the eardrum and the other ossicles.[1]
