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.

The airlines diversion management entails a complex decision-making process that comes into action during the adverse events, preventing the execution of the regular flight operations. Diverting from the intended route can be caused by several reasons both when the safety of the flight or the well-being of the passengers is concerned. A flight diversion can severely disrupt the passenger's comfort, jeopardize the fleet or the crew planning and is generally accompanied with the significant expenses. The intention of every airline in a case of a diversion is to assure the fastest turnaround time and/or provide the passengers with the highest level of services to mitigate the negative effects. A wrong selection of an alternate airport, that is not having enough capacity, personnel or material resources to handle a flight diversion in a timely manner can negatively influence the airline in several ways. Both strategic and tactical diversion management process is a collaborative decision-making procedure, heavily dependent on the base of the information available, where the main actors are not only flight crew and the airline OCC but also the ATC, airport operators and the local service providers. Airline strategic diversion planning shall comprehend a well-defined data set and its data quality procedures shall ensure the information accuracy in the pre-tactical phase. The consequent real time data processing can enhance the decision-making process in a tactical phase of the flight diversion. The data and information required comprise of available airport capacities and other relevant ground resources needed to handle a diverted flight. As stated, such data and information are mostly tactically critical, therefore continuous monitoring and updating shall be ensured. This project shall examine the airport selection methodology based on the proposed real time data management. The results shall validate the data items collected from the airports in real time, the selectio

This project addresses an issue of the size and layout of aircraft stand in terms of operational safety on the apron during a technical handling of the aircraft. In the first phase, research and analysis of the dimensions and appearance of aircraft stands for code letters C, E and F will be carried out at selected international airports. Further the data will be compared with the respective regions regulations and safety risks of aircraft handling will be identified. At the end a model stand will be designed for each aircraft code letter to reduce the safety risk while maintaining reasonable spatial requirements.

The project is focused on Human Factors in aviation, especially on Human Factors roles in Flight Safety and reliability of the Air Traffic Controllers. There is generally known fact that Human Factors play an important role within incidents and accidents in aviation, especially regarding pilots, technical personnel and air traffic controllers as well. Air transport amount dramatically grows year by year as well as amount of air traffic including sporting (amateur) aviation, military and other flights (aeromedical, sightseeing flights etc.). It is obvious that this grow implicates enhanced requirements on air traffic controllers. The project will contain wide retrospective analysis of aviation incidents and accidents where air traffic controllers' influence was significant. The study will include incidents relating to the civil and military traffic and these incidents will be compared each other. There will be assumed documentation of incidents occured within comparable conditions (seas
