MUMBAI, India, Aug. 17 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202611080347 A) filed by Noida Institute Of Engineering And Technology Niet on June 30, 2026, for Predictive Payload Controller System And Method For Dynamic Beam Hopping In Leo Satellite Networks.
Inventors include Ashutosh Kumar Singh; and Kanika Jindal.
The application for the patent was published on August 14, 2026, under issue no. 33/2026.
Abstract: The present invention provides a predictive payload controller system (100) for dynamic beam hopping in low Earth orbit satellite communication networks. The system (100) comprises a satellite payload controller (110), a dynamic traffic prediction module (115) configured to forecast cell-level demand using a recurrent neural inference engine (118) and to estimate prediction confidence via a confidence estimator (119), a predictive beam hopping decision engine (120) that maximises a confidence-weighted demand satisfaction metric, a multi-beam phased array antenna subsystem (130), an orbital position tracker (143), an orbital-aware interference map generator (170) that modulates an inter-beam exclusion threshold to instantaneous orbital geometry, a closed-loop feedback monitoring subsystem (150) and an adaptive online learning module (160) with eclipse-gated weight commits. The system reduces scheduling latency, opportunistically increases spatial reuse and mitigates speculative power expenditure in interference-limited LEO networks. [Figure 1]
