A direction finding antenna system for determining the relative bearing of a second aircraft from a first aircraft in conjunction with a Traffic Alert Collision Avoidance System (TCAS). The system includes a first antenna and a second antenna located on a top surface of the first aircraft, spaced apart along a first axis, as well as a third antenna and a fourth antenna located on a bottom surface of the first aircraft, spaced apart along a second axis orthogonal to the first axis. The system further includes a transmitting, receiving, and processing system coupled to the first, second, third, and fourth antennas, wherein the transmitting, receiving, and processing system is configured to transmit TCAS interrogations, receive TCAS replies, and process the TCAS replies to determine the relative bearing of the second aircraft from the first aircraft.
