Patent attributes
A behind the ear hearing aid includes: a signal processor for processing a first audio signal into a second audio signal compensating a hearing loss of a user of the hearing aid; a receiver that is connected to an output of the signal processor for converting the second audio signal into an output sound signal; and a transceiver for wireless data communication interconnected with an antenna for emission and reception of an electromagnetic field; wherein the antenna comprises a first actively fed resonant structure provided proximate a first side of the hearing aid, a second actively fed resonant structure provided proximate a second side of the hearing aid, and a conducting segment short circuiting the first resonant structure and the second resonant structure to provide a current bridge between the first side of the hearing aid and the second side of the hearing aid.
