The aim of the studies is to prepare top-class scientific personalities that will be able to provide solution to challenging problems of science and technology in the field of information technologies in telecommunications. Another aim is to teach graduates the methods of scientific work, to make their knowledge of higher mathematics and physics more profound, and to furnish students with theoretical, experimental and practical knowledge from the field of teleinformatics.

Graduates of doctoral studies in the field of teleinformatics are fit to work as scientific and research workers in the development, design and operation departments of research and development institutes, and telecommunications companies, where they can make full creative use of their knowledge and skills.
The graduate is capable of solving independently sophisticated problems of science and technology in the field of teleinformatics.
In view of the scope of his theoretical education the graduate is capable of adapting to practice requirements in both fundamental and applied research.

This field of study focuses on the science education of doctoral students with profound theoretical foundations in converging communication and in formation technologies. The main part of the study includes course in theoretical informatics and telecommunication technology. In the area of teleinformatics the student has much knowledge of communication and information technologies, data transmissions and their security, inclusive of using and designing the related software. He is well versed in operating systems, computer languages, database systems, distributed applications and the like. He can cope with the algorithmization of tasks on a high level and can propose new technological solutions of telecommunication devices, information systems and support services.

1. Converters for mutual A/D and D/A conversions working in the current mode

   The work is focused on the design of A/D and D/A converters working in the current mode. The aim is to design a suitable structure of number-current and current-number converters without internal current-voltage and voltage-current conversions with respect to enhancing the bandwidth in comparison with converters working in the voltage mode. Part of the work is also the design and analysis of current-mode antialiasing filters. The design will start from unconventional circuit element structures such as current conveyors (CCI, CCII, CCIII) with simple or floating output, current feedback amplifiers (CFA) or transconductance amplifiers (OTA, BOTA, DBTA). Requirements to be met by the candidate: the knowledge of circuit theory and simulation programs (MicroCap, PSpice).

2. Novel methods of biological signals extraction from medical images

   The theme is focused on processing of static, dynamic or three-dimensional images produced by different medical acquisition techniques, namely the output of the sonographic examination, body slices acquisition using the magnetic resonance etc. The goal is to improve properties of single images, their segmentation, 2D object recognition, quantification of different object parameters, their dynamic or spatial analysis, or eventual 3D model reconstruction. The main result of the work will be a proposal of a novel method being utilizable for solving of concrete diagnostic problems in cooperation with doctors.
