A stacked patch antenna comprising two metallic patches ( ) stacked on top of each other. The middle patch ( ) comprises at least two conductors ( ) at or close to its edge ( ), which conductors are intended to be connected to a ground plane ( ) to thereby ground the patch in two places. The top patch ( ) comprises at least two conductors ( ) at or close to its edge ( ) which electrically interconnect the two patches. The middle patch is fed at a feed area ( ) which is at least proximate its geometric center. The middle patch further comprises at least two apertures ( ) completely within its circumference ( ), i.e. each aperture having a respective unbroken circumference ( ). Thereby enabling radiation from slots ( ) defined by the edge of the top patch and the edge of the middle patch and defined by the edge of the middle patch and the ground plane.
