MUMBAI, India, June 30 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202617068750 A) filed by Koninklijke Kpn N. V. on June 01, 2026, for Orchestration System And Reader Device For Orchestrating Backscatter Communication.
Inventors include Meunier, Ben Charles Emmanuel; Duffy, David Michael; and Cronin, Harry Michael.
The application for the patent was published on June 26, 2026, under issue no. 26/2026.
Abstract: The disclosure pertains to an orchestration system for orchestrating backscatter communication in a backscatter communication system comprising at least one backscatter device storing data to be read through the backscatter communication triggered by an excitation signal from an excitation source. The backscatter communication system may comprise at least a first reader device for reading the data from the backscatter device and a second reader device for reading the data from the backscatter device. The orchestration system may be configured to select the first reader device or the second reader device to read the data from the backscatter device by performing an energy efficiency optimization algorithm for the backscatter communication system. The orchestration system takes into account at least one of a first transmit power and a second transmit power of the excitation signal of the excitation source to trigger the backscatter communication to the first reader device and the second reader device, respectively, and a first data rate and a second data rate for transmitting the data from the backscatter device to the first reader device and the second reader device, respectively.
