DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\n\nAs we have finalized the research for 5G\, now the
 re is a race for technologies that will conquer 6G. The 6G technologies wi
 ll achieve much better latency and computation efficiency as compared to 5
 G. From 1G to 5G\, almost all research and standardization randomly model 
 the wireless channel between transmitter and receiver. There is no control
  of humans over a wireless medium\, as it is given by nature. In 6G\, we w
 ill break this assumption and go from random wireless channels to controll
 able wireless. Thanks to Intelligent Reflected Surfaces for Future Wireles
 s System(IRS). This talk will explain in detail the physics of metasurface
  and the progress of IRS till today. This talk will also present different
  use case\, study cases\, signal processing and communication techniques f
 or IRS\, standardization\, Prototype and testbed\, and the open research c
 hallenges.\n\nBiography:\n\nShahid Mumtaz is an IET Fellow\, IEEE ComSoc a
