How
it works.
Normally 50% of the cell phone signal is directed toward the users head
where the hearing aid is located. Interference is created by the
handset's digital transmission that causes a "buzzing" noise
in hearing aids, which can range from annoying to intolerable levels.
The
LowSAR antenna is designed to fit the Nokia 5100-6100 series handsets
and will work with most carrier networks. "Itís like having a
little satellite dish on your phone."
Added
benefits of the LowSAR antenna include greater range and up to 40% or
more talk-time. By focusing the transmissions normally blocked by the
users head towards the cell sites, the handset will operate at lower
power levels and maintain a better signal with the tower.

"Now,
a digital cellphone
hearing aid users can have"
-
NO MORE NOISE
- NO MORE WIRES
- NO MORE HEADACHES
NEW
ADVANCED ANTENNA TECHNOLOGY REDIRECTS OVER 95% OF RF AWAY FROM THE
HEARING AID.
"The
phone with the standard antenna was very annoying with the buzz in the
background while the same phone with the LowSAR antenna was very quiet,
and quite acceptable."
Naomi
Fleer.
SUMMARY
OF RESULTS:
The Starkey tests indicated that reducing the interference with hearing
aids by up to –26 dB (98%) eliminated the buzzing noise. The
substantial interference reduction was achieved by directing the
handsets’ digital transmission signals away from the head where the
hearing aid is and towards the cell sites.
