Abstract :
In this article the compatibility between a hearing aid and a cellular phone is studied. Simulation results obtained for 2.5 GHz, 3.5 GHz and 5.4 GHz using commercial software based on the finite difference time domain method were presented and were compared to the values imposed by international standardization committees.
