MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611025767 A) filed by Swami Vivekanand Subharti University, Meerut, Uttar Pradesh, on March 5, for 'a system and method for self-authenticating anti-theft protection of a solar photovoltaic (pv) panel.'
Inventor(s) include Shubham Tyagi; Amit Kumar; Sandeep Kumar; and Reshu Kumar.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a system and method for providing self-authenticating anti-theft protection for a solar photovoltaic (PV) panel. The system is configured to be operatively connected between the solar photovoltaic panel and an inverter or charge controller and utilizes intrinsic electrical characteristics of the panel as a unique identity mechanism. During authorized installation, multidimensional electrical parameters including voltage response, current characteristics, transient behavior, harmonic profile, and controlled micro-perturbation response are captured to generate a secure electrical fingerprint. The fingerprint is encrypted and stored within a memory unit. During operation, real-time electrical parameters are continuously compared with the stored fingerprint within predefined tolerance limits. Upon detection of unauthorized removal, replacement, disconnection, or tampering, the system activates a power isolation unit to electrically disconnect the panel and prevent further power generation. Reactivation is permitted only through authenticated verification."
