The invention relates to a method for coupling a signal to an antenna structure, as well as to an antenna structure, which comprises at least two antenna elements (101, 102), a ground plane (105) for grounding the antenna structure, a coupling line (106) for coupling a first antenna element and a second antenna element to each other, and a feeding line (107) for feeding the antenna structure through one feeding point. The first antenna element (101) is next to the ground plane and perpendicular to the ground plane (105). The second antenna element (102) is above the ground plane and parallel to the ground plane. The first antenna element is arranged to receive information on a reception band of a broadband radio system and the second antenna element is arranged to transmit information on a transmission band of said broadband radio system. By arranging the second antenna element to be adjustable and by adding antenna element to the antenna structure, the antenna structure according to the invention can be used, for example, in mobile stations of 2nd and 3rd generation mobile communication systems.
