External Part of the Receiving System for UHF Satellite signals
Sýkora, Jan ; Herceg, Erik (referee) ; Urbanec, Tomáš (advisor)
This bachelor thesis deals with omnidirectional antennas in the UHF band, especially Lindenblad’s omnidirectional antenna and its nulls in the radiation pattern. The aim was to design a preamplifier, power supply circuit and bias tee with the transmission of power supply, UHF signal and reference GPS signal through single coaxial cable towards a receiver. A further requirement was to design a mechanical part of the antenna which holds it together with considering modern manufacturing processes - 3D print. The final task was the measurement of antenna’s real parameters.

Antena integrated to automobile seat
Gulda, Tomáš ; Mrnka, Michal (referee) ; Cupal, Miroslav (advisor)
This thesis is focused on the design of the antenna integrated to automobile seat. Thesis explains the basics of RFID technology, and how RFID works. Especially explains the design of tag, which works in the UHF band. The tag was designed in the CST Microwave studio, where simulations were realized to verify basic properties of the tag such as S11 parameter and directivity. The thesis also contains simulation of the impact of automobile seat on the directivity. Here is the description of how the antenna was made on a textile substrate and here are also measured properties of the antenna.

Identification and authentication technologies
Miklánková, Zuzana ; Lieskovan, Tomáš (referee) ; Dzurenda, Petr (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the analysis of currently available RFID technologies and smart cards. Summarized are types of identification and authentication radio or contact systems. The practical part compares measured RFID functional outputs and describes the implementation of multi-attribute authentication system using RFID technology and smart cards. For example, the authentication system can provide employees with access to the building, necessarily demonstrated by both the smart card and RFID tags.The system also includes user privacy elements, where identity of the user cannot be detected by captured communication.

Methods for localization of pulsed broadband signal source
Machala, Petr ; Hadinec, Michal (referee) ; Drexler, Petr (advisor)
The topic of this barchelor’s thesis is the analysis of problems regarding localization of partial discharges (PD) and related PD recording, processing and interpretation in time and frequency domain. In majority of cases the occurrence of partial discharges refers to a certain defect in the measured device, therefore in practice (eg large equipment such as oil transformers) it appears to be very useful and economical to determine the exact position, where PDs are formed. To address these complex issues, it is necessary to design the entire measuring chain from PD detection to measured data processing and localization itself. In terms of data processing and PD localization many different localization and detection methods can be applied, some of them are presented in this documentation. These methods are gradually studied, implemented and afterwards tested using the input data of the experiment.

Softwarové rádio pro emulaci protokolů v RFID
Prachař, Petr ; Fuchs, Michal (referee) ; Derbek, Vojtěch (advisor)
This diploma thesis focuses on the design and implementation of an emulator of RFID protocols in a software defined radio. The designed emulator operates in the UHF band (860 MHz – 960 MHz). The main goal of this design is a very fast measurement of power characteristic of tag. The proposed solution is based on implementing the transmitter controls directly into the SDR. Thanks to this solution a reduction of delay between measurements occur compared to the conventional concept, when the transmitter parameters are controlled by the hosted PC. In this thesis, suitable platform based on research is chosen for implementation and also a concept of design is proposed and described herein, which is based on implementation of time critical algorithms directlyinto the software defined radio’s FPGA. The proposed solution was implemented into selected platforms and its functionality was experimentally verified.

Algorithms for analysis and processing of RFID signals in FPGA
Harvánek, Michal ; Kováč, Michal (referee) ; Derbek, Vojtěch (advisor)
The result of this thesis is the architecture design for a software-defined radio, which is used to analyze the signal emitted by RFID tags in real time. The aim of this analysis is to measure the frequency characteristics of the RFID tag. The main means for achieving the objective of optimizing signal processing algorithms and reduce the time needed to control the hardware compared to the classical concept of SW radio USRP. It is described how to obtain and display digitally sampled signals using a graphical programming language LabVIEW and subsequent processing of these data in MATLAB. Further described is the skeleton of the proposed solution.

Antenna for broadband impulse signal
Smutný, Martin ; Kořínek,, Tomáš (referee) ; Drexler, Petr (advisor)
The thesis describes retrievals of broadband antennas for VHF and UHF. It focuses on a compact antenna, potentially suitable for detecting electromagnetic impulses generated by electrical discharges in the dielectric oil in power transformers. This pulse signals are very steep with hundreds pico seconds rising edge. The thesis presents basic characteristics of antennas and selects those which have a major influence on the possibility of using the antenna in selected application. The appropriate antena is selected and proposal its geometrical parameters is discussed. The geometry of the selected antenna is designed for working bandwidth from about 200 MHz to about 1000 MHz. The newly designed double discon antenna is simulated and dimensions are optimized. Antenna is made and key characteristics of the antenna important for evaluate the ability of detecting the above-identified pulsed signals is measured. Antenna is compared with gain and characteristic of monocone antenna. Acquired knowledge and measured data are evaluated.

Dual-band directional antenna for receiving DVB-T signal
Matyáš, Petr ; Šebesta, Jan (referee) ; Lukeš, Zbyněk (advisor)
The main goal of the masters project is to design a dual band antenna for receiving DVB-T signal in the area of the city of Brno. The antenna will be designed and detaily adjusted for receiving multiplex 1 and 3, exactly for frequencies of 538 MHz and 778 MHz. The designed antenna will be deeply tested in 4nec2 and CST Microwave Studio programs.
