Prof. Paulraj is interested in discussing with our staff members and PhD students in wireless communications and artificial intelligence on April 11th or even 12th. If interested, please contact Charlotte Grady at c.grady@imperial.ac.uk to arrange.

In this iCore Distinguished Lecture, the speaker will address the current trends in evolution of the 802.11 standard and then focus on 11ax (HE) < 6GHz standard under approval. We will touch upon shortcomings of current WiFi technology and some of the fixes promised by 11ax. The need for performance modeling of 11ax in typical deployment and application scenarios will be highlighted. The role of machine learning and analytics in future WiFi network managements will also be touched on.
