Three things to try,
1. Shutdown then restart, look for your wifi and join.
2. Reset SMC
3. Reset PRAM

That's all I have, good luck.
 
Same thing happened to me on my upgrade from 10.8 to 10.9. A simple restart fixed it for me. Resetting SMC should help, too.

tried this and didn't work. it was working perfectly last night but as soon as Mavericks is installed i got this WIFI issue. i checked online and followed all possible solutions but nothing. my iPhone is ok and so is my IPAD. can't really understand why i can't connect to my WIFI with this new MAVERICKS. i will try and install my old Snow Leopard it it will let me. otherwise i am really ready to throw out the towel. i have been trying to fix this since this morning and can't come up with a solution. hopefully someone can give me a solution. thanks.
 
i gave up and just decided to use DCHP with manual address. not the best solution as i have to switch back and forth and could be a potential issue when i use other peoples wifi but for now will suffice. i have no idea what happened. i might reinstall mavericks and hopefully that will resolve my issue. this is a pain.

Did you contact Apple?
 
My Wifi has gone as well. Was working perfectly last night on Mavericks but won't connect today at all.

Up until now I can't seem to resolve my issue. I am writing this on my ipad which can connect to my wifi. Whole day of work and can't fix it. So frustrating. Grrrrhhh

i may have found a solution (knock on wood) and hope my WIFI stays connected. what i did was to re-install Mavericks from APP STORE. but here's the tricky part - you can't download Mavericks from APP STORE as it will detect your OS version as up to date so you need to do a SUDO NANO edit on your System.plist and change SW V from 10.9 to 10.8. that way APP STORE will see that you have an old version and you can upgrade to MAVERICKS and MAVERICKS will download and install. as soon as it's done installing, i restarted my MBP and noticed that my WIFI signal icon is ON. i will see tomorrow if it's still OK. imagine, i've worked on this issue since 10am (oct 23) this morning and it's now 1:41am (oct 24).
