Abstract
A hearing device can perform wireless communication with another device using a bowtie antenna. In various embodiments, the bowtie antenna can include two conductive plates and one or more notches in at least one of the two conductive plates. The one or more notches can be sized, shaped, and/or positioned to approximately optimize performance of the bowtie antenna for one or more frequency bands of the wireless communication. In various embodiments, the hearing device can receive energy using the bowtie antenna and charge a rechargeable battery using the received energy.
