Methods described herein relate to communication between a moving platform such as an aircraft and a base station. Position information, velocity information and base station position information may be utilised to anticipate signal blockages (by terrain or body of the aircraft) and initiate transfer to a different base station and/or aircraft antenna in response to an expected blockage. This avoids loss of communication through blockages, thereby increasing throughput. The communication system including one or more antennas is carried on (e.g. mounted on) the moving platform. The moving platform may be an aircraft, land-based vehicle (e.g. a train) or a water vessel (e.g. a boat or ship).
