Time transfer via GNSS
15. September 2014
In the project the prototype of the GTR51 device for comparison of time scales was developed. The device uses sinals of satellite navigation systems GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO and SBAS.

DSSS
4. August 2014
The digital slit sun sensor (DSSS) measures the position of the Sun with respect to its axes. It overcomes the disadvantages of the sun sensors used in the past, e.g. on Magion satellites, that were analogue cosine law sensors.This sensor mainly consists from COTS and industrial components and is therefore relatively cheap.
Gamma-ray calibration facility
3. August 2014
Cosmic ray consists of many types of radiations and particles, the example is gamma-ray, which consists of energetic photons. The task of this project was to develop ESA’s reference station, on which would be possible to measure and calibrate the equipment prepared for spacecraft used for gamma-ray detection.
Neutron detector for space applications
3. August 2014
Medipix detectors are used as a tool for the measurement and characterization of complex radiation fields, including the field of fast and thermal neutrons. Neutron detectors are an important tool in the search for hydrogenous materials, especially water, in the planetary remote sensing.
Neutron facilities in the Czech republic
3. August 2014
The project Neutron facilities focused on the evaluation of existing neutron sources in the Czech Republic with respect to preparation of the equipment for testing and calibration of neutron sensitive detectors of ESA. The main goal was to provide a comprehensive measurement, test and calibration of neutron sensitive devices intended for space research.
MOFINT
10. December 2013
The objective of the project was to develop and experimentally validate propagation models and relevant input data for the statistical prediction of radio interference on ground terminals of satellite systems including the implementation of the models into a software tool.
ANED-M
5. December 2013
The project was focused on statistical fitting of model parameters to measurements, identification of worst case scenario and geometry optimisation and its goal was to propose a methodology for optimisation of nozzle extension geometry so as to minimise its weight and maximise its reliability with respect to the prescribed uncertain loading.
TREFOTEL
4. December 2013
The influence of the real tropospheric environment on the characteristics of both optical and radio terrestrial links was examined. The research was based on results of complex measurements of optical, radio and meteorological parameters.
IRIS / ANTARES
29. November 2013
Iris is a multi-year program funded by the European Space Agency (ESA - ARTES 10). The objective of the Iris program is to design and develop new satellite communication systems for safety critical air/ground data and voice communication, enabling the future ATM (Air Traffic Management) concepts being defined by SESAR and NextGen.
ESPRIT
29. November 2013
The aim of the ESPRIT project was to propose a preliminary satellite system design for UAS C2 (Command & Control) link and to develop a business case analysis from the UAS C2 service provider perspective, and an analysis of the operational concept of the satellite system.
