STATIONARY COMMUNICATION DEVICE COMPRISING AN ANTENNA
First Claim
1. A stationary communication device comprising a housing, an antenna, and a transceiver unit operationally coupled to the antenna, the housing enclosing the antenna and the transceiver, the housing being configured to assume a specific orientation relative to the surface of the earth when the stationary communication device is placed in an operational state, in which state the antenna is vertically polarized, and wherein the antenna is substantially planar in that it comprises one plane surface comprising an electrically conductive material that contributes to reception and/or transmission of electromagnetic radiation.

Abstract
The application relates to a stationary communication device comprising a housing and an antenna and a transceiver unit operationally coupled to the antenna, the housing being adapted for assuming a specific orientation relative to the surface of the earth when placed in an operational state. The application further relates to a communication system. The object of the present application is to provide a stationary communication device with an antenna that facilitates wireless communication to a portable communication device. The problem is solved in that the antenna is vertically polarized. An advantage of the disclosure is that a stationary wireless communication device with a small height can be implemented. The invention may e.g. be used for the hearing aids, headsets, ear phones, active ear protection systems, handsfree telephone systems, mobile telephones, and accessories to such devices.
