The WISE (WIreless Systems Engineering) Lab works on blending newer applications with emerging wireless technologies. Although a significant amount of research and commercial effort has gone into creating new generation of wireless technology standards such as 5G, WiFi 7 and LiFi, a lot of futuristic applications still face significant hurdles in using such networks. The goal of WISE Lab is to leverage the expertise of its members in a variety of wireless network applications to enable such futuristic applications in ways that users find acceptable. Such applications include traffic surveillance using wireless cameras, cloud-assisted autonomous driving, streaming of educational and sports content, activity recognition and industrial IoT systems.
The research of WISE Lab has been recognized worldwide via publications in top-tier venues (USENIX ATC, ACM Ubicomp, ACM Mobihoc, IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking, IEEE Transactions on Network Services and Management), generous funding from government (ANRF, AICTE, DST) and private (Cisco) sources. Members of this lab are actively involved in releasing new software systems, actively participate in the world’s research community and in a variety of academic events. They also collaborate with other interested researchers in a variety of domains such as cyber-physical systems, wireless communications, machine learning and mobile applications. The lab is currently managed by Arani Bhattacharya, who has been an Assistant Professor at IIIT-Delhi for over 5 years.
