Let be the Mordell-Weil group of a rational elliptic surface and let be its rank. In this note we classify all the rational elliptic surfaces with Mordell-Weil group of rank over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic and using the theory of Mordell-Weil lattices, we find systems of generators for in the coordinate-free situation.
