Abstract

The hearing aid to be fitted inside the ear has a housing and an antenna device having a dominant transmission direction. The antenna is arranged in the housing such that the dominant transmission direction for a state of the hearing aid attached to or fitted in a first ear of the patient is directed essentially towards the second ear of the patient. Preferably, the antenna is mounted on a mounting plate at an angle of between 10 and 40 deg. to the plate perpendicular.
