Abstract: The dual polarized antenna element includes a planar radiating element (2) arranged in a first plane; a metallic surface (4) arranged in a second plane and provided with slots (5,6; 5,6.1,6.2) extending under the radiating element (2); a supply conductor structure (7,8) arranged in a third plane so as to be coupled with the slots (5,6; 5,6.1,6.2) in the second plane, which is located above the third plane. One slot (5) extends on a line of symmetry (11) of the radiating element (2) and the other slot (6; 6.1,6.2) runs perpendicularly to and mirror symmetric to the line of symmetry (11). In order to provide the highest possible decoupling of both polarizations, the other slots (6; 6.1,6.
