MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641050647 A) filed by Kits Akshar Institute Of Technology, Yanamadala, Andhra Pradesh, on April 21, for 'neuromorphic liquid-metal antenna array system with embedded edge-ai for self-morphing beam adaptation in swarm drone networks.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Katuru Anjaneyulu; Dr. B. Srinivas Raja; Mr. M. Srinivas; E. Bhanu Prasad; and K. Anka Siva Prasad.
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 invention addresses the critical challenge of maintaining reliable, high-speed, and energy-efficient communication links in dynamic multi-drone swarm environments where rapid formation changes, environmental interference, and signal blockage frequently degrade performance. The proposed system integrates a flexible liquid-metal antenna array, fabricated using microfluidic channels embedded in a lightweight polymer substrate, with a neuromorphic Edge-AI processor directly onboard each drone. The liquid-metal elements enable real-time physical reconfiguration of the antenna geometry, allowing dynamic beam shaping, steering, and adaptation. The embedded neuromorphic chip, operating on spiking neural networks, processes sensor data locally at ultra-low power and ultra-low latency to autonomously decide and control the optimal antenna morphology without r."
