Dear All, Networks Seminar, supported by the Centre for Networked Intelligence, is a technical discussion forum in topics including but not limited to computer networks, machine learning, signal processing, and information theory. The seminar series has a webpage hosted at https://cni.iisc.ac.in/seminars/. You are invited to the following seminar held as part of this series. Title: Ubiquity and Evolution of Wi-Fi Speaker: Dr. Ashutosh Gore, VP Engineering, Reliance Jio Time: 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM (IST) Date: 07 September 2026 Venue: GJ Hall and Online on Zoom Tea/Coffee: 5:00 PM Zoom link: https://us06web.zoom.us/j/83388976389?pwd=XcpO3GhLxsR14a7SVbPx33HQQa1jbt.1 Zoom Meeting ID: 833 8897 6389, Pass Code: NSSIISc YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wu8MynsrO0Q&list=PLNN9TCnjABcY5RBvFXAghzQ6HMsNX8GeF Webpage Link: https://cni.iisc.ac.in/seminars/2026-09-07/ <https://cni.iisc.ac.in/seminars/2026-09-07/> Abstract: This talk starts with the evolution of indoor WLAN physical layer (PHY) technologies across 6 generations (Wi-Fi 3 to Wi-Fi 8). We start with the WLAN link budget, PHY block diagram and provide insights into practical aspects of key features such as 4K/8K QAM and UL MU MIMO. We briefly touch upon mmWave indoor Wi-Fi standards 802.11ad/ay and their applications. Finally, we talk about outdoor Wi-Fi in the unlicensed as well as licensed band regimes, along with their technological impact. Bio: Dr. Ashutosh Deepak Gore has 20 years of industry R&D experience. He joined Jio Platforms Limited in Oct 2024, where he is working on next-generation fixed wireless access technologies. Prior to Jio, he had been the technical manager of the WLAN PHY Modeling group in Qualcomm Bangalore for 8 years. His team developed several key PHY hardware blocks across 3 generations of Wi-Fi chips. Before QC, he had worked in Samsung, Broadcom, Marvell and Nortel Networks. On the academic front, Dr. Gore obtained his B.Tech. and Ph.D. degrees from IIT Bombay, and M.S. degree from University of Hawaii, all in Electrical Engineering. He has published 20+ international papers and patents. More Details: https://www.linkedin.com/in/adgore/ ALL ARE WELCOME. Thank you, CNI Seminar Series Organizing Committee.


About the Centre for Networked Intelligence

We are racing towards a connected world where every individual and device contribute to and benefit from the network. However, our data collection surpasses our ability to extract valuable knowledge. To achieve networked intelligence, we need a holistic approach involving real-time sensing, communication, analytics, and more. The centre aims to develop next-gen networking solutions for smart cities, IoT, data exchanges, and society's benefit.
