  • Publication number: 20240129677
    Abstract: A hearing device comprises an input transducer; a signal processor; an output transducer; a transceiver configured for wireless data communication, an antenna for electromagnetic field emission and electromagnetic field reception, the antenna coupled to the transceiver, and a module. The module comprises a transceiver interface coupled to the transceiver, an antenna interface coupled to the antenna, a transmission path configured for sending signals from the transceiver to the antenna, the transmission path comprising a transmission amplifier, a reception path configured for sending signals from the antenna to the transceiver, the reception path comprising a reception amplifier, and a bypass path configured for sending signals between the transceiver and antenna by bypassing the transmission path and the reception path.

  • Patent number: 6904296
    Abstract: A balanced antenna is provided for a mobile telephone which couples to the outputs from a balanced power amplifier stage without needing connection through a lossy conversion circuit. The balanced antenna comprises two radiating elements positioned opposite one another with the feed points positioned so that the radiating fields from the two elements superpose. A floating ground is also provided which reduces the effects of components located on the PCB under the antenna.

  • Patent number: 6707428
    Abstract: A broadband antenna comprises a driven element and a parasitic element resonant at different frequencies so that the antenna had a bandwidth encompassing both resonant frequencies. A further driven element, resonant at a third frequency, may be added so that the antenna is also usable in a different separate band.
