Honors and awards

R2B - DIAMANT

Based on the brain child innovation of Mr. Mayank, the DIAMANT project aims to design, develop a thin membrane antenna for small satellites. The motivation behind this innovation lies in extending the communication capabilities of the small satellites to meet the high throughput demand of the new space missions. The project also aims to explore a commercialization potential and use case for the researched technology.
Award or honor granted for a specific work Department of Electronics and Nanoengineering Aug 2024
