Additional fundings

The project "Design of Smart and Integrated Antenna for CubeSat" is at the same time awarded with a post-doctoral position funded by the Academy of Excellence "Networks, Information and Digital Society". The 5 projects marked in bold will also benefit from additional funding of 10 k€ for conference travel and professional equipment, as their research subject have been declared early enough to be widely spread by DS4H.
