Abstract

Antenna system comprising processor/s in data communication with receiving segment/s in motion on ground and computer memory accessible to processor which stores a computer representation indicative of desirable polarization behavior parameter/s of the airborne transmitting segment, for each relative location of the airborne and ground segments, the processor providing a current relative location of the airborne transmitting and receiving segment/s on the ground, accessing a desirable polarization behavior parameter associated with the current relative location of the airborne and receiving segment/s on ground from the computer representation, accessing a current polarization behavior parameter of the receiving segment/s' antenna, computing a real time adjustment of the polarization's axial ratio which, if applied to the receiving segment antenna, will change the receiving segment antenna's polarization behavior parameter from the current polarization behavior parameter to the stored one, and feeding the real time adjustment to the receiving segment antenna.
