CDI is less frequent in the conditions studied compared with literary data; however, the fulminant form has a very high mortality. Delayed recognition and treatment is a crucial determinant of the severity of CDI. The association between CDI and antibiotic consumption is less clear.

Modern methods of active defense of military vehicles are based on detection of threat missiles and their elimination by suitable active counter-measures. For these purposes, special radar detection systems are often used. The presented solution employs the SIW based leaky wave antennas which enable detection of the threat missiles in an immediate vicinity of the protected vehicle. The missiles are detected by two tilted detection planes: one main detection plane (as described in [1]), and the other, operating ahead of the main plane. Since the missiles fly through two different planes set under two different angles, system triggering can be improved and more missile parameters can be measured. The sensor structure is relatively simple and occupies merely little space on the surface of the protected vehicle. The performed tests prove functionality of the developed solution.
