The thesis deals with a microelectronic wireless networks for telemetry and building automation in terms of energy consumption related to the communication in wireless networks. Assumption, mesh topology is optimal topology for wireless networks for telemetry and building automation, was proven and relation between energy consumption and devices management was shown and functional abstraction related to the energy consumption was described. Several advanced techniques and solutions on physical and network layers were proposed to increase network reliability and decrease power consumption. Proposed techniques can be easily implemented.

In the pre-lacation, lactation and post-lactation periods in 2010 and 2011 and the pre-lactation period in 2012 we used radio-telemetry to determine changes in home range and habitat activity and preference of the maternity colony of the Mediterranean horseshoe bat (Rhinolophus euryale) in Slovak Karst. The colony roosted in the attic of the monastery in Jasov. This area represents the northern margin of the species distribution range. In total, we tagged 35 females that were radio-tracked for 31 nights. For the all pre- lactation periods 17 females were marked, in the lactation periods 12 females were marked, and 6 females were marked in the post-lactation periods. The females were marked with radiotags and the VHF telemetry (radio telemetry using very high frequencies) was used. We compared the spatial and habitat preferences in the above defined seasons of the annual reproductive cycle. The total number of recorded locations was 858 for all reported periods. We compared the varios aspects of activity of the females during the night in the particular periods. We have shown that the females left their roost in the pre-lactation periods as the most late. These were followed by the females in the lactation periods and as the most early after the sunsetthe roost was left by the females in the...

The thesis studies the quantity of feral pigeons (Columba livia f. domestica) and their daily activities in the locality of Smíchov in Prague. The research was focused on finding whether there is only one group of pigeons bound to the locality by daily activities connected to their consistent alimentary habits or whether there are two subgroups, one of them staying in the locality and the other one leaving to get food further from the city. A method of wing tags with further tracking and modern GPS telemetry was used for the research. A total of 10 birds was caught and marked by a wing tag and one subject was tracked by GPS telemetry. Using these methods, it was found that the pigeons are divided into two subgroups in the locality, one of them sticking to their overnight area even during the day and getting fed on garbage or by people and the other one leaving to get food on the fields 6km away from the city. In the sowing period, the whole group took part in leaving to get the food in the fields further from the city. Key words: feral pigeon, abundance, telemetry

The study deals with first telemetry observations of Black-Crowned Night Herons (Nycticorax nycticorax) in the Czech Republic. The main aim was to describe post-fledging dispersal abilities and evaluate influence of chosen factors to dispersion of young birds. The study also deals with population trends, variability of reproductive parameters and factors affecting these traits.

This master thesis is focused on GPS telemetry of red deer (Cercus elaphus) in the environment of the Doupov Mountains in the Military training Hradiště. In the first part of the thesis are solution of introduction to general issues preferences and the occurrence of red deer and other related ungulates. The second part of the thesis is focused on my own research. The Positional data monitored hind Dorothy was collected in the period 1. 7. 30. 3. 2014. The aim was to determine, if the time hunting have to influence to microhabitat preferences on the hind of red deer and if the selection of posts are accidental or is influenced by the characteristics of the post. The Research conducted of data inventory from GPS using collar and of data, which arised laser air scanning the surface (technology LiDAR). For comparison and finding the preferences of the hind was created the network accidental comparative points. Field exploration and LiDAR technology consider the dependence of the average height of vegetation around of Dorothy positions the period of the year and the time of day. Data was evaluated ANOVA for the non-parametric data distribution (Kruskal-Wallisova) and the program Microsoft Excel. At each station has been carefully identified information about the location including visibility of the hunting-game device and height of stand. The results indicate that the average height of the vegetation was at the stands searched by the hind of red deer during a sunrise and a day. The lowest was in night and at sunset. The hind of red deer prefer, in hunting time during the day, thick scrub and during the night more open spaces with larger views properties, where she actively looking for food. The most preferred visibility at the time of hunting and off time hunting was to the eastern direction. The most least preferred visibility was always to the western direction. Minimum presence of the hunting-game device is in the time of hunting during at the day and sunrise, maximum at night. This behavior was probably caused increased hunting activity. The results of the thesis may be used in forestry management, for forest protection and by planning of hunting management of the red deer populations.

Model of landscape connectivity for European otter Abstract Landscape connectivity is one of the main functions that mitigate the effects of landscape fragmentation on organisms. It allows organisms to move through habitat areas to natural habitat. Given of the overall decline in biodiversity, conservation of landscape connectivity is one of the main objectives of current nature protection. The greatest impact of landscape fragmentation on the population of European otters is mortality on roads. The most of the dead otters are found every year in the Jihočeský and Vysočina regions. That is why this region is an adequate model area for determining the connectivity of the landscape from the perspective of otters. This thesis deals with landscape fragmentation, habitat connectivity and landscape resistance. CIRCUISCAPE is the main tool used to solve connectivity modelling. From the resulting connectivity, landscape resistance and mortality values, risk areas for migration were selected. The telemetry data from the area around Dačice were used to validate this model. Keywords: habitat connectivity - landscape resistance - telemetry - European otter

This diploma thesis deals with the flight data wireless transmission from aircraft to the ground station. This is the data sent from the acrobatic aircraft during races, specifically the GPS position and data from sensors of acceleration and rotation of the aircraft. It dealt with the theoretical analysis of the radio link and design of device that receives radio transmission. In aircraft it is dealt with data capturing and their deployment through the radio module. Data are sending to another post-processing on the ground station after receiving. There are two solutions of radio module and in the last part is a solution for capturing data from more airplanes.

This thesis describes design and implementation of SW architecture for autopilot of unmanned aircraft including flight data logging, integration of automatically generated code from Matlab Simulink and communication with ground station.

Corfu is a framework for satellite software, not only for the onboard part but also for the ground. Developing software with Corfu follows an iterative model-driven approach. The basis of the process is an engineering model. Engineers formally describe the basic structure of the onboard software in configuration files, which build the engineering model. In the first step, Corfu verifies the model at different levels. Not only syntactically and semantically but also on a higher level such as the scheduling. Based on the model, Corfu generates a software scaffold, which follows an application-centric approach. Software images onboard consist of a list of applications connected through communication channels called topics. Corfu’s generic and generated code covers this fundamental communication, telecommand, and telemetry handling. All users have to do is inheriting from a generated class and implement the behavior in overridden methods. For each application, the generator creates an abstract class with pure virtual methods. Those methods are callback functions, e.g., for handling telecommands or executing code in threads. However, from the model, one can not foresee the software implementation by users. Therefore, as an innovation compared to other frameworks, Corfu introduces feedback from the user code back to the model. In this way, we extend the engineering model with information about functions/methods, their invocations, their stack usage, and information about events and telemetry emission. Indeed, it would be possible to add further information extraction for additional use cases. We extract the information in two ways: assembly and source code analysis. The assembly analysis collects information about the stack usage of functions and methods. On the one side, Corfu uses the gathered information to accomplished additional verification steps, e.g., checking if stack usages exceed stack sizes of threads. On the other side, we use the gathered information to improve the performance of onboard software. In a use case, we show how the compiled binary and bandwidth towards the ground is reducible by exploiting source code information at run-time. / Corfu ist ein Framework für Satelliten-Software für beide Seiten: Space und Boden. Mit Corfu folgt die Softwareentwicklung einem iterativen modellgetriebenen Ansatz. Grundlage der Software-Entwicklung ist ein technisches Modell, das formell die grundlegende Struktur der Onboard-Software beschreibt. EntwicklerInnen beschreiben dieses Modell in Konfigurationsdateien, die von Corfu in verschiedenen Aspekten automatisch verifiziert werden, z.B. im Bereich des Scheduling. Anhand des definierten Modells erstellt Corfu ein Quellcode-Gerüst. Die Onboard-Software ist in einzelne Applikationen aufgeteilt, die durch Kommunikationskanäle miteinander kommunizieren (Topics genannt). Generischer Code und der generierte Code implementieren bereits die Behandlung und Verwaltung der Topic-Kommunikation, Telekommandos, Telemetrie und Threads. Der generierte Code definiert pur-virtuelle Callback-Methoden, die BenutzerInnen in erbenden Klassen implementieren. Das vordefinierte Modell kann allerdings nicht alle Implementierungsdetails der BenutzerInnen enthalten. Daher führt Corfu als Neuerung ein Code-Feedback ein. Hierbei werden anhand von statischer Analyse Informationen aus dem BenutzerInnen-Quellcode extrahiert und in einem zusätzlichen Modell gespeichert. Dieses extrahierte Modell enthält u.a. Informationen zu Funktionsaufrufen, Anomalien, Events und Stackspeicherverbrauch von Funktionen. Corfu extrahiert diese Informationen durch Quellcode- und Assembler-Analyse. Das extrahierte Modell erweitert das vordefinierte Modell, da es Elemente aus dem vordefinierten Modell referenziert. Auf der einen Seite nutzt Corfu die gesammelten Informationen, um weitere Verifikationsschritte durchführen zu können, z.B. Überprüfen der Stack-Größen von Threads. Auf der anderen Seite kann die Nutzung von Quellcode-Informationen auch die Leistung verbessern. In einem Anwendungsfall zeigen wir, wie die Größe des kompilierten Programms sowie die genutzte Bandbreite für die Übertragung von Log-Event-Nachrichten durch das erweiterte Modell verringert werden kann.

Reproduction ability is the key factor for survival and dispersal of every species. There is, however, only limited information about reproduction of large-bodied fish. Males of European catfish, our biggest native fish, build nests in vegetation and mate there later with females. After succesful mating male guards the nest and takes care of eggs and fry. According to literature, the act of reproduction should take place at nights with water temperature from 18 to 24 řC. However, available records about reproductive behaviour are outdated, fragmentary or come from aquacultures. Thus, a study was designed to evaluate behaviour of European catfish in their natural environment in the Berounka river using radiotelemetry, the results of which I processed in this thesis. Spatial distribution of catfish was followed during the whole year, with special attention on separating mating season from the rest of the year. The goal was to determine conditions characteristic for the mating period and to verify that catfish in the field indeed reproduce in pairs. For this purpose, 10 adults were tracked for two-year period (2002-2004) in the Berounka river by radiotelemetry. Exact positions of all individuals were followed in fourteen-day cycles. In every tracking episode, the position of an individual fish was...
