An antenna with polarization switching comprising a plurality of waveguides fed with radiofrequency signals and perforated with apertures disposed so as to illuminate radiating elements placed on mobile support means in a plane that is distant from the said apertures, it being possible for the said support means to be configured according to at least two distinct configurations. The radiating elements illuminated according to one and the same configuration are adjacent, the support means being adapted for orienting the radiating elements illuminated in a first configuration according to a different direction from the radiating elements illuminated in a second configuration. The antenna applies notably to the switching of antennas onboard objects moving on the ground required to undertake high-speed communications with a satellite, in particular a geostationary satellite.
