An antenna arrangement (100) comprising a radiation layer (110) comprising a first slot (111) and a second slot (112) extending along a first slot axis (D3) and second slot axis (D4), respectively, where the first and the second slots are arranged in a column (115) extending along a column axis (D5), and where the slot axes are arranged at respective non-zero third and fourth angles (a3, a4) with respect to the column axis; and a distribution layer (120) facing the radiation layer (110), comprising a first ridge waveguide comprising a first ridge (121) and a second ridge waveguide comprising a second ridge (122), wherein waveguiding paths (201, 202) of the first and second waveguides are configured to match respective shapes of the first and second ridges. A first section (123) of the first ridge (121) facing the first slot (111) extends along a first ridge axis (DI) and a second section (124) of the second ridge (122) facing the second slot (112) extends along a second ridge axis (D2), where the ridge axes are arranged at respective non-zero first and second angles (a1, a2) with respect to the column axis, where the first and second angles (a1, a2) are configured to match the third and fourth angles (a3, a4), respectively.
