S.V. Chandrashekhar Aiya (1911–1992) was an Indian scientist and engineer who mathematically demonstrated the effect of thunderstorms and lightning on television and radio broadcasting signals (RF signals).[1][2][3]

He was the second Chairman of the Department of Electrical and Communications Engineering in the Indian Institute of Science (1959-1969).[4][5] The S.V.C. Aiya award is named after him.[6] He was also the first full time director of the National Council of Educational Research and Training.[7]
