Estimating the term…
The present invention relates to an antenna module for a hearing device. The antenna module comprises a hollow core provided with an axial passageway and a winding around the core which is connectable with a hearing device. The antenna module is arranged to be at least partially contained within the ear canal of a user. This enables the antenna to be separated from sources of interference, since it can be positioned inside the ear canal away from hearing device electronics, thus reducing requirements for shielding and/or compensation. The invention further relates to an ear tip and a hearing device comprising such an antenna module.
Antenna module for a hearing device comprising a hollow core and a winding provided around said core and connectable with said hearing device, wherein said core comprises an axial passageway through the core and said antenna module is adapted to be at least partially containable within the ear canal of a user, and wherein at least one tube is connected with said axial passageway, said at least one tube connecting the axial passageway to a receiver unit and channeling an acoustic output of the receiver unit through the axial passageway.
