MUMBAI, India, March 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611009460 A) filed by Dr. Malaya Kumar Nayak; Professor Rasoul Khandan; and Monalisa Nayak, London, on Jan. 29, for 'system and method for fuzzy-logic congestion monitoring and prevention in manet.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Malaya Kumar Nayak; Professor Rasoul Khandan; and Monalisa Nayak.
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: "The present invention discloses a system and method for monitoring and preventing congestion in mobile ad hoc networks (MANET) to improve Quality of Service. The system establishes multiple candidate routes between a source node and a receiver node using on-demand multipath routing, and selects an available route set based on channel utilization and memory/queue utilization. Congestion indicators comprising link delay, channel utilization, and memory/queue utilization are continuously or periodically obtained and mapped to fuzzy linguistic levels. A fuzzy inference rule base determines congestion status as low, medium, or high. When congestion is medium or high, a congestion prevention controller executes corrective actions including adaptive transmission-rate control, local route repair and route switching, load balancing across available paths, priority-based queuing, and resource allocation. These coordinated actions reduce packet dropping, manage buffer pressure, avoid congested links, and improve throughput and routing efficiency. The invention provides a lightweight adaptive framework suitable for dynamic, infrastructure-less MANET."
