MUMBAI, India, Nov. 7 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202431035260 A) filed by Institute Of Engineering & Management, Kolkata, West Bengal, on May 3, 2024, for 'skynet weather: a precision weather forecasting framework for flying ad-hoc networks.'
Inventor(s) include Madhumita Pal; Ayan Kumar Panja; Amartya Mukherjee; and Satyajit Chakrabarti.
The application for the patent was published on Nov. 7, under issue no. 45/2025.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention discloses a FANET framework for efficient and precision weather prediction and forecasting that leverages ultra-low latency opportunistic message transfer protocol (MTP). An, edge empowered intelligent computing quasi-stationary sink nodes are employed to develop the FANET ecosystem further. Flying sensor nodes and edge computing quasi-stationary sink nodes are deployed in the target area in order to achieve optimal sensor coverage, minimizing the cost of data transmission power thus ensuring long endurance operation of drones, as well as collision avoidance. An ensemble model can be deployed in edge level for localized weather prediction. A set of opportunistic routing strategies are proposed to send the data to the main base station or ground station for further analytics."
