Abstract: The present invention relates to an antenna arrangement comprising a dielectric medium (2) with a first side (3) and a second side (4), with a feeding arrangement (6; 6?) on the first side and at least one slot (5; 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73) in a ground plane on the second side, where the feeding arrangement comprises at least a first (13; 13?; 37; 37?), a second (14; 14?; 38; 38?), a third (15; 15?; 41; 41?) and a fourth (16; 16?, 42; 42?) feeding conductor, each intersecting the gap of the slot (5; 62, 63, 64, 65; 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73), where each intersection constitute a feeding point (17, 18, 19, 20; 39, 40, 43, 44, 50, 51, 52, 53) for the antenna arrangement (1; 1?; 1?; 1??). In a first mode of operation, a first constant E-field (26) that is directed across the slot is obtained. In a second mode of operation, a second E-field (28) which is directed across the slot, having a sinusoidal variation is obtained.
