MUMBAI, India, Aug. 22 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202421010790 A) filed by G. H. Raisoni College Of Engineering; and G. H. R. Labs And Research Centre, Nagpur, Maharashtra, on Feb. 15, 2024, for 'a fractional order controller system for dynamic water distribution in irrigation canals.'

Inventor(s) include Nangrani, Sunil; Sheikh, Shadab; Sheikh, Nadeem; Nannaware, Roshan; and Chaudhari, Prajwal.

The application for the patent was published on Aug. 22, under issue no. 34/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention is related to a fractional order controller system for dynamic water distribution in irrigation canals. The system optimizes Integral of Absolute Error (IAE) across varying plant parameters, ensuring efficient performance. The controllers adapt to changing environmental conditions, enhancing system resilience. Through simulations comparing with traditional controllers, including PI and PID, our method demonstrates superior performance, particularly in noise rejection and robustness to unmolded dynamics. The hardware implementation integrates Arduino Uno (102), IR sensors (104), DC motors with encoders, and L298N motor drivers, facilitating precise control. This invention offers a promising solution for improved irrigation management, promising enhanced efficiency and adaptability in water distribution systems."
