Sniffer for power lines communication
Zapletal, Radek ; Šťastný, Ladislav (referee) ; Franek, Lešek (advisor)
This work deals with the design and development of universal software packet analyzer for capturing, analysis and filtering Power-line communication (PLC). The input data are provided by hardware packet analyzer over RS-232 interface. The application will find use in the area of Smart Grids and Smart Metering. This work describes both of these areas including sniffers and suggests several possible solutions with a selection of the best one and description of the development process.

Extension of biomass boiler
Kastner, Jakub ; Šťastný, Ladislav (referee) ; Burian, František (advisor)
Goal of this work is design and create extension data acquisition unit for existing system of heating boiler. Work is divided to theoretical and practical part. In theoretical part is mentioned methods of measuring temperature. Methods of measuring flue gas and placement of boilers into different classes according to standard ČSN EN 303-5:2013. The practical part deals with the design of schematic circuit for measuring the required parameters (lambda probe, thermocouple, measuring the light intensity using the photo-resist). Mechanical cover, testing created board under real conditions and the involvement of extension board into existing system of boiler. When commissioning the first version of the board appeared errors that were removed in the second version. In attempts to improve the operations of two boilers were found errors leading to the impossibility of any improvements.

2D ultrasonic positioning
Junek, Jiří ; Šťastný, Ladislav (referee) ; Hynčica, Ondřej (advisor)
This thesis deals with the implementation and evaluation of measuring directional and omni-directional ultrasonic senzors. Control of ultrasonic senzors and computation of a distance is realized by using a microrontroller Arduino Duemilanove. The first part deals with the measurement of directional sensors, their wiring and subsequent processing of the measurement is performed in Matlab. The second part deals with solving of measuring and visualization 2D position omni-directional ultrasonic senzors, implementation trilateration algorithm for calculating x and y coordinates and comparison the used filters. At the end of this thesis also includes a comparison of directional and omni-directional ultrasound and evaluate their applicability for measuring 2D position.

Zero-Cross Detection for Time Synchronization in the Environment of PLC Communication
Šťastný, Ladislav ; Steinbauer, Miloslav (referee) ; Vozňák, Miroslav (referee) ; Fiedler, Petr (advisor)
The doctoral thesis proposes a synchronization event detection method suitable for establishing a common time base across devices using power-line communication. The technique facilitates the creation of a synchronization procedure for smart grid terminal devices, thus bringing to the low-voltage segment new functionalities already known from the higher voltage levels of the distribution network. High-precision, zero-cross line voltage detection was employed as the synchronization event. The use of the PLL (phase-locked loop) was considered and analyzed as a potentially applicable option; however, such a solution proved to be insufficiently robust against interference. Further, an FFT-based approach was designed and reviewed. The technique performs zero-cross detection, but only for the fundamental harmonic component that remains the same across the entire network. The influence of incoherent sampling on the FFT, too, was tested during the development of the method; in this context, coherent sampling was found to constitute an essential prerequisite for accurate detection as it allows us to eliminate the spectral leakage error. The impact of an AD converter on the detection accuracy was also evaluated. The proposed approach ensures the accuracy required for all common measurements and operations to improve the production, distribution, and consumption of electricity through smart grids.

Wireless M-Bus communication system
Baštán, Ondřej ; Šťastný, Ladislav (referee) ; Fiedler, Petr (advisor)
The thesis deals with the design of wireless communication system using Wireless M- Bus, which works in the 169 MHz band. This system is designed to collect data from meters that are not equipped with a radio and have pulse outputs. The thesis describes the Wireless M-Bus standard and the current components of the communication system used by ModemTec. It also describes the selection and design of a suitable hardware implementing the receiver and transmitter modules and the firmware design for these modules. The thesis deals with the parameterization of the transmitter module in order to specify the parameters of the transmitted measured quantity.

Configuration and diagnostics for Smart Grid
Hrbek, Martin ; Šťastný, Ladislav (referee) ; Franek, Lešek (advisor)
This thesis designs a solution for configuration and diagnostics for the Smart Grid. It creates use case diagram for configuration and diagnostics and designs individual software modules of the system. The thesis informs a developer about suitable devices for configuration and diagnostics for the Smart Grid, especially about rugged handhelds. The thesis chooses suitable software tools for development of designed modules and contains recommendations for developers, how to use this tools. The realization of one of the designed modules verifies the correctness of the designed solutions and approaches.
