Inventor(s) include Dr Hemraj R Kumavat; Amit S Ufade; Dr Mahesh R Sanghavi; Dr Kainjain M Sanghavi; Madhuri Dattatray Kawade; Dr Khyati Nirmal; Dr Suchita B Jadhav; Yogita K Desai; Deepali P Pawar; and Nayanachaskar.

The application for the patent was published on March 13, under issue no. 11/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Adaptive Vehicular Fog-Gateway Architecture Enabling Time-Synchronized, Privacy-Preserving, Deadline-Aware Rural Data Delivery This invention describes a vehicular fog-gateway system engineered for deadline-critical, partition-tolerant last-mile connectivity in rural and semi-connected Indian regions. Mobile pods mounted on buses, trucks, and ferries integrate multi-modal communication (WiFi-6, LoRaWAN, 4G), UWB-disciplined 2 ms time synchronisation, NVMe caching, human-safety sensing, and dual-kiosk coded relaying. Static, solar-powered kiosks store rateless-coded bundles and operate under tight energy budgets. A federated-learning scheduler predicts contact windows, dwell times, kiosk energy states, and regional mobility disruptions to dynamically choose symbol budgets, codecs (RaptorQ, LT, FEC), and PHY modes. Privacy-preserving sketches (Bloom/MinHash) encode bundle progress without exposing identities. The system supports condition-specific modes for monsoon washouts, ferry outages, market-day surges, night convoys, and critical education/health deadlines. By integrating coded caching, multi-PHY switching, predictive scheduling, and time-disciplined auditing, the system ensures reliable, efficient, and auditable content delivery across highly intermittent rural DTN environments."
