Abstract
The invention relates to a multi-layered carrier element for reducing interference with an antenna comprising at least one coil. In addition to the layer, the antenna comprises a shield which is placed along at least one extension of the antenna and split at a certain point. The shield is electrically connected to a reference point which is located on the carrier element and is preferably electrically connected to the ground layer. The shield reduces interference such as that caused by a hand or by a nearby metallic object.
