Satellite-based data collection method

A radiofrequency system and to a data collection method includes at least one beacon, and at least one space platform or airborne platform with an adaptable antenna beam. The method comprises: a step wherein the platform emits an activation signal with a low directional antenna beam, each beacon responding with an access request, a step of generating a table comprising, for each item of equipment, a duration of visibility, a frequency band and a transmission duration, a step of defining a control plan scheduling the sequencing of the transmissions associated with directional antenna beam configurations of the platform, a step comprising: transmitting the times at which they are able to transmit to the items of equipment that emitted an access request, orienting the antenna beam of the platform according to the control plan, sending and storing the data.
