The AOC Team from IIT Madras made its first in-person participation at the ITU-T SG15 meeting, marking a key milestone for India in global optical communication standardization. The team submitted five technical contributions—including two new work item proposals, two invited papers, and one supporting document—under Working Party 2 (WP2) on optical fibers, cables, and transport systems.
This engagement strengthens India’s role in international standardization and supports the development of next-generation optical communication technologies.



'IITM AOC Team at ITU-T SG15', huh? Sounds pretty technical! I bet they could use a significant figures calculator to round numbers at some point in the future, but it's cool seeing India step up in optical communication. Wonder what impact this will have on my Netflix streaming while I'm on the subway!
