This project will focus on the design and research of a universal FPGA platform using advanced processing methods for high-speed radar signal processing. New methods and algorithms of digital radar signal processing will be used for adaptive cancelation of distortion and suppression of clutter in signals with a complicated Doppler spectrum (for example, scattering from wind turbines). The detection range of remote low radar cross-section targets will be enhanced by increasing the radar's power output and by effeciencies gained through improved pulse compression. The new design will fulfill both the TMA and SRE operation requirements. The programmable gate arrays (FPGA) platform will be used simultaneously for fast digital communication.

The main goal of this project is research and develpment of a hardware platform, firmware and software needed for a functional ground based ADS-B and MLAT prototype receiver. The system will be able to receive, process and evaluate ADS-B messages broadcast by aircraft transponders, and all other replies sent in mode S and SSR.

The main goal of this project is research and development of a hardware platform with a firmware for a functional sample of ground based interrogator. The system will be able to transmit interrogations as well as receive and processs replies in modes 1, 2, 3/A, B, C, D and S.

The goal of this project is the realization of a personal microsystem named "SYMOD", for the monitoring of vital functions and for monitoring of the environment.

The objective of this project is to improve helicopter safety during the landing and take-off phases, with special focus on landing in unknown, and potentially dangerous, environments with poor visibility. To achieve this objective, the project will develop a system able to detect a wide arrray of obstacles in the vicinity of the helicopter. When the system detects obstructions, the system will alert the pilot and crew.

The project deals with every day life in marriage in the ?long?19th century, using the Catholic normative and institutionary sources. Marriage will be presented from the Roman Catholic viewpoint and use fallowing types of sources: evidence source in Episcopal archives (matrimonalia, agenda of dispenses, notes about marriage cases by Episcopal court) and normative sources (pastoral manuals and manuals for confessors).
Through connecting of these sources a vivid view of the care about marriage in the Catholic Church during the 19th century can originate. These sources were not yet used for research of every day life in 19th century. Scholarship of this theme connecting history of pastoral theology with gender history can significantly enrich recent research of marriage and family which is researched especially thanks to
historical demography and ego-documents.

Innovation and the ability to transfer unique production factors (including knowledge, skills, and creativity) are a source of productivity and competitive advantage in various industries around the world . Innovative company performance depends on two groups of factors ? exogenous (i.e., technology or knowledge acquisition, knowledge spillover effects) and endogenous (such as R&D expenditures, a skilled workforce, and an organizational innovation environment as a company strategy). It also depends on the field (industry) in which a firm operates, the availability of financial resources, and the degree to which they cooperate. Each of these determinants influences national and regional productivity, and their effectiveness is influenced by development level, technological advancement, and economic context. Therefore, the project is concerned with modeling the dynamics and effects of individual drivers of productivity at the national and regional levels. Similarly, it is necessary to conduct inter-sector and international analyses of the dynamics of knowledge and cooperation effects in this area and to define their practical implications.

Knowledge spill-over effects (KSE) are based on the fact that subjects obtain benefits from the knowledge generated by other entities (e.g. other enterprises or public institutions) without spending money. They take the form of cooperation between researchers, scientific staff mobility, informal exchanges of ideas, publication of unwanted information, etc. KSEs are increasingly regarded as important levels of economic policy (that´s why municipalities support the spill-over effects from public budgets as state aid), there have been very few attempts so far to investigate the impact and efficiency of knowledge on local- and region-level economic development. Therefore, the key role of KSE and knowledge networks in contemporary regional and local development requires the design of new approaches to their mapping and analysing. The objective of the project is to design such models (analytical tools) of KSE at regional and local levels, which will model complex relations among regional and local actors by using methods of soft-computing and systems theory.
