METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING A FACILITY ON THE GROUND OR AT SEA

摘要

The present invention relates to a method for identifying a facility on the ground or at sea, wherein said method is implemented on an airborne responder connected to at least two antennas, and said method comprises a step of selecting a first transmission antenna (102) and a step of transmitting an interrogation message from the selected antenna (104), the method further comprising at least the following steps: checking if a response has been received by the responder (106); if at least one response signal is received by at least one of the antennas, selecting a transmission antenna based on the received response signal(s) (110); if no answer message is received, selecting a transmission antenna different from the antenna that has transmitted the last interrogation message (108); repeating the method from the interrogation message transmission step (104).
