Research Thrust Areas / 5G and Next Generation Communication Technologies

Overview

IIT Hyderabad is a leader in 5G and next generation communication technologies. Prof. Kiran Kuchi’s research group has contributed significantly to the 5G standard by tabling India’s first ever standards essential patent (SEP) before the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) standards body. Please see here for more details. In addition, our faculty are doing cutting edge research in next generation communications technologies that span the entire communication stack ranging from the physical layer to the application layer. More than INR 100 Crores have been generated so far in project funding.
