Dal 1^ gennaio 2017, d’accordo con l’Università, è in quiescenza in quanto dimissionario dal ruolo e, come professore a contratto, collabora, sia per la didattica (è titolare di Radar systems and applications) che per la ricerca. Su proposta dell’Ateneo, il Ministro dell’Istruzione e dell’Università lo ha nominatoProfessore Onorario con il decreto 00832 del 20.10.2017.
La sua attività scientifica è rivolta: - dal punto di vista del contesto progettuale ed operativo, alle telecomunicazioni, alla navigazione satellitare e, particolarmente, alle tecniche ed ai sistemi radar nelle loro svariate applicazioni, tra cui il monitoraggio ambientale ed i sistemi di controllo/gestione del traffico aereo e del traffico aeroportuale. - dal punto di vista delle metodologie e discipline scientifiche, alla rivelazione e stima, ai modelli statistici ed ai metodi di analisi simulazione. Tra i numerosi progetti di ricerca svolti si citano: Studio, sviluppo e sperimentazione operativa (presso l’aeroporto Marco Polo di Venezia) di un radar in gamma millimetrica (94 GHz) per il controllo del traffico sulla superficie aeroportuale, in collaborazione con ENAV, Thales ATM e Oerlikon Contraves Italia (anni 1999-2002); si tratta della prima applicazione in assoluto di frequenze così alte per i Surface Movement Radar. Studio e sviluppo degli algoritmi per Multilaterazione. Gli algoritmi innovativi messi a punto hanno consentito di migliorare di un ordine di grandezza la precisione di localizzazione degli aeromobili con trasponder di Modo S per scopi di controllo del traffico; essi sono utilizzati negli aeroporti di Malpensa e Fiumicino, e oggetto di brevetto.
Studio di nuove tecniche per la separazione di repliche di Modo S e ADS B sovrapposte. Le tecniche, basate su elaborazione spazio-temporale dei segnali, permettono un sensibile aumento (da uno a due ordini di grandezza) della capacità del canale.
Studio della sorveglianza radar in ambiente marittimo e delle interferenze nel relativo ambiente elettromagnetico.
Sistemi “Noise Radar”: teoria, valutazione, sperimentazione sul campo. In tale quadro, l’articolo “Continuous – Emission Noise Radar: Design Criteria and Waveforms” a firma G. Galati, G. Pavan e C.

In 1991-99, within the NationalTransportation Research Project of the National Research Council (Progetto Finalizzato Trasporti Due/ CNR)he has been responsible of one of its five areas, namely the Support Systems and Infrastructures Area,coordinating more than fifty Research Units.In 1990-1998 he has organized four international AdvancedWorkshops on Radar Meteorology, namely RADME 92, 94, 96 and 98, and, then, has been a member of theProgram Committee of the ERAD (European Weather Radar) Conferences, held in 2000 and 2002.. He hasbeen member, or chair, of the Program Committee of many InternationalConferences. In the 1990’s heconceived a new architecture for the control of Surface Traffic in Airports, based on a network of millimeter-wave, high-resolution small radarMiniradars.The Italian Air Traffic Services, ENAV approved and foundedthe related 2.5 MEuro worth “Fast Prototyping” experimental plan proposed by G. Galati in cooperation withOerlikon Contraves ( now, Rheinmetall Italy) and Thales ATM. The related trials were successfully performedin the Marco Polo Airport (Venice, Italy) in 2002-2003. He has represented the Tor Vergata University Unitthe National Inter-University Consortium for Telecommunications, CNIT, namely: from 2011 to 2013, in theShareholders’ Assembly (composed of representatives of each Member University), and from 2014 to 2016,in the Scientific Board, i.e. the scientific consultative organ of the Consortium. For three years starting inOctober, 2016 he is member of the Development Committee (Comitato di Valorizzazione) of the NationalLaboratories of CNIT and coordinates the Editorial Board of the “CNIT Technical Report” series,https://www.cnit.it/en/other-activities/technical-reports/.From 1986 to 2016, G. Galati has been teacher, at the Engineering Faculty of Tor Vergata University, of (a)Radar Theory and Techniques, (b) Probability,Statistics and Random Processes, (c) Radar and Navigation, and(d) Radar Systems. Moreover, at the Economics and Financial School of the Law faculty, he teaches, for theOfficers of the “Guardia di Finanza” (GdF), (e) Radio and Radar techniques. He has been tutor (relatore) ofover 150 Master thesis in 1986-2016. He coordinated a research group of three Research Associates and avarying number of Ph.D. students. From the beginning of 2017, retired from the service at the University, heteaches, under contract, Radar Systems, and Radio and Radar techniques for theGuardiadiFinanzaofficers.Moreover, in 2017 he is tutor of three Ph.D. candidates, all in Radar area, aimed to obtain their degree in2017, 2018 and 2019 respectively. He has been appointed Honorary Professorat Tor Vergata University bythe Education Ministry decree 00832-dated 20.10.2017.His main interests are in radar theory and techniques, detection and estimation, weather radar, waveformdesign, Navigation and Air Traffic Management as well as the history of Radar, with publication of his volume“100 years of Radar”, Springer International Publishing, Switzerland, 2016. His most recent interests are inMarine Radar, Vessel Traffic Service, Radar calibration and RCS measurements, as well as new architecturesfor Phased Array radarandNoise Radar. He is author/co-author of about 300 papers, 20 patents, 5 researchbooks and 5teaching books on those topics Curriculum Vitae-prof. Gaspare GalatiGaspare GALATI received the Dr. Ing.Degree (Laurea)with maximumscores in Nuclear Engineering fromLaSapienzaUniversity, Roma, Italy on March, 1970.From 1970until1986 he was with the company Selenia(later:Alenia, AleniaMarconi Systems, Selex) where he was involved in radar systems analysis and design.From 1984 to 1986, he headed the System Analysis Group of Selenia. With Selenia,he organized and chairedthe two-weeks international Advanced Course on Modern Radar Techniques and Systems and was Editor ofthe resulting book "Advanced Radar Techniques and Systems" (IEE-Peter Peregrinus, 1993, 986 pages, ISBN0-86341-172 X). As Italian representative, he has participated to theICAO(International Civil AviationOrganization) panel named SICASP–SSR Improvements and Collision Avoidance Panel (1980-1986) and totheEurocontrolWorking Groups, as well as to EURET.
