IEEE SCV Women in Engineering and IEEE SCV Communication Society invite you to attend:

Low Power Wake-up Receivers

When: Wednesday, March 8, 2017 6:30 PM – 8:45PM

Where: Texas Instruments Building E Conference Center Directions, 2900 Semiconductor Dr. Santa Clara, CA 95052

Abstract: The Low Power Wake-up Receiver (LP-WUR) is a promising technology that can facilitate low-power wireless communication, particularly in IoT use case scenarios.  Although the concept of WUR has been proposed in academia some years ago, only recently it has attracted significant attention from industries due to the development of IOT, as an example, the IEEE 802.11 standardization has very recently formed a new Wake-Up Receiver (WUR) Task Group TGba. In this talk, Shahrnaz Azizi  will gave an overview of LP-WUR technology and a new standard development for LP-WUR in IEEE 802.11 Wake-up Radio Task Group (TGba).

Shahrnaz Azizi, PhD  is  a Research Scientist at Intel Labs with research interests in development of physical and MAC layers of next generation wireless communications systems. Dr Azizi received BS. and MS degree from Sharif University of Technology, Tehran, Iran, and a Ph.D. degree from Arizona State University, Tempe, AZ, all in Electrical Engineering. Since May 2000, she has been with Intel Corporation where she has worked on the design, development and implementation of Wi-Fi devices, and has contributed to various standards developments in IEEE 802.11, WiMax and LTE with focus on the physical layer algorithms.
