Systems Lead, Meta Infrastructure
Current1. Video traffic constitutes 70-80% of all traffic on the internet. I am working on finding the right trade off between video traffic load and the end-user QoE. Working on technical domains of application layer bandwidth estimation, adaptive bit rate video streaming, pre-fetching/buffering strategies, congestion control.2. Working on improving end user quality of experience of Meta's multi-media products like video on demand, live video, voice and video calling, cloud gaming, cloud VR over telecommunications networks (both mobile and fixed access)3. Actively working in Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) to standardize a secure interface between content platforms and communication service providers to enable cross layer optimizations. Check out the IETF working group on Standard Communication with Network Elements: https://datatracker.ietf.org/group/scone/about/Publicly released prior accomplishments during tenure at Meta:1. Co-invented a novel wide area mobile network coverage solution called SuperCell. Demonstrated the full end-to-end solution on the field with a team of highly qualified engineers. Built business models from the point of view of mobile network operators and tower companies. Generated technical and economic playbooks to help industry scale the solution to provide coverage to 600 Million rural uncovered population around the world.2. Invented the core system architecture based on novel (patented) post amplification carrier aggregation technique. Helped build a team of RF engineers, control engineers, mechanical engineers, embedded software engineers. led a team to build and demonstrate the world's first communication link in mm-wave with 40 Gbps capacity both in uplink and downlink between a ground station and a fast moving aerial platform3. Co-invented and led the team that demonstrated the world's first modem agnostic analog line of sight MIMO system with 11Gbps demonstrated throughput over a range of 13 km
