MUMBAI, India, Sept. 26 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202441021619 A) filed by Charan. M; Jayadev C. L; Kishore. T; Bharat A. S; and Kamaleshwar P. B, Sathyamangalam, Tamil Nadu, on March 21, 2024, for 'iot based coal mine safety monitoring system using heltec lora technology.'
Inventor(s) include Charan. M; Jayadev C. L; Kishore. T; Bharat A. S; and Kamaleshwar P. B.
The application for the patent was published on Sept. 26, under issue no. 39/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The demand to increase safety precautions in coal mining operations arises from the growing need for coal as an energy source. Because of the wide and complicated environment of coal mines, traditional safety monitoring systems frequently fall to provide real-time data and full coverage due to restrictions in connectivity and network range. In order to overcome these obstacles, this study introduces an entirely new Internet of Things (IoT) based coal mine safety monitoring system that makes use of Hence Lora (Long Range) technology. The suggested system makes use of a network of sensors coupled with Heltec LoRa modules to track several environmental factors, including temperature, humidity, carbon monoxide concentration, and methane concentration, that are vital to guaranteeing the safety of coal mines. These sensors are positioned thoughtfully throughout the mine to gather information, which is. then transmitted over vast distances using Lora technology, which is wen-known for its long-range capabilities and low power consumption, making it particularly fitting for the challenging coal mine environment. Using the introduction of a scalable, economical, and dependable solution that makes use of cutting-edge IoT and LoRa technologies, this enhances the field ofmining safety."
