The project aims to implement and validate a concept of operations based on the forthcoming Surface Movement Awareness System Service (SMAS) standard at a regional airport in the Czech Republic. The project proposal also contains a safety study that shall be conducted before implementing the concept of operations and assessing whether the concept of operations meets the necessary level of safety for future SMAS operational certification. Another objective is the development of a surveillance application compliant with the SMAS standard, based, among other things, on Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) surveillance data, with the possible addition of Human Machine Interface (HMI) elements and alerting functions according to the requirements of the project partner Kunovice Airport. Also, the project aims to address the interoperability of the surveillance application developed according to the SMAS standard with other surveillance and operational tools/systems that may already be implemented at the airport. The need to address interoperability is based on the limitations of SMAS, which does not provide data fusion functionality with other systems.

GNSS signals are used by a wide range of critical infrastructure systems and have become an integral part of modern society. However, this technology is highly vulnerable and many cases of GNSS interference have been documented. These cases have led to a demand for the development of various GNSS interference detection capabilities and resilient technologies that are capable of countering GNSS interference attacks. However, in developing detection capabilities and resilient technologies, many research teams limit themselves to the simpler form of GNSS interference - jamming and neglect the more complex and dangerous form of interference - spoofing. This is despite the growing number of spoofing attacks. Emerging resilient technologies are not subject to any form of classification or verification of their actual ability to defend against attacks using GNSS interference. Nor are there currently any independent tests being conducted to verify the resilience of receivers to GNSS interference. Thus, the proposed research extends the existing expertise of CTU in the area of GNSS interference to include the use of GNSS spoofing for testing the robustness of GNSS receivers.
