Dr. Saswati Paramita received her Ph.D. in Electronics and Communication Engineering from IIIT-Delhi and her M.Tech. in Communication Engineering from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kharagpur. Her research focuses on Hybrid LiFi–WiFi Networks, Optical Wireless Communication, mobility management, channel modeling, and resource optimization for Beyond-5G and 6G wireless systems. Her work aims to develop efficient, reliable, and high-capacity communication solutions by integrating LiFi and WiFi technologies while addressing challenges related to user mobility, handover, channel impairments, and network optimization.
Her broader research interests include wireless networks, optical wireless communications, and the physical and data link layers of Visible Light Communication (VLC). She has published her research in IEEE Transactions journals and leading international conferences.
She has contributed to a Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY)-funded project, involving the development of a LiFi prototype for indoor communication and its coexistence with WiFi in real-time environments. Her contributions have been recognized with the Best Demo Award at COMSNETS 2023, the Award of Excellence in Innovation, Research and Development at IIIT-Delhi (2022–2023), and the Best Paper Award in the Women in Engineering (WiE) Track at IEEE ANTS 2025.
