Abstract

A dual-polarized antenna system is provided for transmitting or receiving electromagnetic waves. The antenna system has at least one cruciform radiating element module that is aligned using dipoles or in the form of a patch radiating element, at angles of +45.degree. and -45.degree. with respect to vertical. The antenna system further has a conductive reflector arranged in the back of the at least one radiating element module. Two conductive side wall sections are provided on each side of the at least one radiating element and are disposed vertically. At least one slot is provided in each side wall section at the level of the radiating element module and extend in parallel to the reflector plane.
