Abstract: An antenna system enabling a link between an airborne object sending out a signal E with any polarization and a moving body equipped with a dual-polarization antenna comprises at least one device to determine the position of the moving body and of the airborne object, and an assembly for positioning the antenna. The system comprises at least one polarization combiner receiving two signals H and V coming from the dual-polarization antenna, the signals H and V resulting from the signal coming from the airborne object; the combiner being adapted to recombining the signals H and V in order to obtain a signal E optimizing the link balance between the moving body and the airborne object.

Abstract: An antenna comprises one or more radiating strands where at least one radiating strand has both its ends connected by means of one or more conductive wires, the radiating strands forming part of the upper pole of the antenna. Application to monopole or dipole type antennas working in the frequency ranges corresponding to the HF, VHF or UHV bands.
