Abstract

A compact 2.45 GHz slot-loop antenna is implemented for the use in the outer shell of an in-the-ear (ITE) hearing instrument (HI). The antenna is optimized for high ear-to-ear path gain (jS21j). The antenna simulation results are
presented for two identical antennas, one placed in the center of each ear. A simulated path gain of 􀀀75.0 dB is obtained.
