Abstract
The disclosure describes a hearing aid part, a detection device for finding the hearing aid part when lost, and a hearing aid system comprising a hearing aid part and a detection device. The hearing aid part comprises, a control unit and an antenna circuit that are part of a wireless unit for wireless transmission and/or reception of electromagnetic signals. The antenna circuit comprises a capacitance and an inductance that together define a resonance frequency of the antenna circuit. The hearing aid part further comprises a dissipative resistance and a switch. The dissipative resistance and the switch are arranged to allow selective coupling or decoupling of the dissipative resistance to or from, respectively, the antenna circuit to thus allow controlling of the dissipative properties of the antenna circuit by the switch.
