1. An antenna arrangement comprising a differential mode antenna and a common mode antenna, said antenna arrangement comprising:
an antenna structure comprising one radiating element including at least one differential antenna feed configured to induce first differential mode currents in said radiating element and at least one common antenna feed configured to induce first common mode currents in said radiating element, wherein the radiating element comprises conductive paint or a layer of flexible and conductive sheet material;
wherein the antenna structure is configured to excite a first radiofrequency range and a second radiofrequency range in response to said first differential mode currents and said first common mode currents,
at least one first antenna element operably coupled to said differential antenna feed such that said differential mode antenna is formed, and
at least one second antenna element operably coupled to said common antenna feed such that said common mode antenna is formed, wherein said at least one first antenna element and said second antenna element are configured to excite a third radiofrequency range in response to said first differential mode currents or said first common mode currents.
