Abstract
A bone-anchored hearing aid is disclosed. A bone-anchored hearing aid for a recipient may comprise an antenna configured to transmit and/or receive a wireless signal, an electronic circuit configured to receive the wireless signal, one or more vibrator leads, a vibrator configured for receiving an electrical signal from the electronic circuit via the one or more vibrator leads, and the vibrator may be configured to provide a vibrational stimulation to the recipient patient based on the electrical signal. Furthermore, the hearing aid includes a vibrator housing configured to accommodate at least the vibrator, and wherein each of the one or more vibrator leads may be connected to the vibrator and to the vibrator housing via a capacitance, and where the capacitance is configured to eliminate at least a parasitic coupling between the vibrator and the vibrator housing for improving the performance of the antenna.
