MUMBAI, India, Feb. 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202641007488 A) filed by Vellore Institute Of Technology, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, on Jan. 26, for 'a method and system for dual-mode device-to-device communication in a 5g iomt network.'
Inventor(s) include Subhra Sankha Sarma; Sagar Pareshkumar Ramanbhai; Shah Arpan Hasmukh Mayuri; and Rahul Manohar O.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 13, under issue no. 07/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A system (100) and method for dual-mode device-to-device (D2D) communication in a fifth-generation Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) network are disclosed. The system (100) comprises a D2D transmitter, a D2D receiver, at least one relay node, and a cellular base station, wherein D2D communication operates in a direct mode or a relay-assisted mode. Mode switching is governed by network conditions including signal-to-interference-plus-noise ratio, interference level, coverage distance, or bandwidth requirement. A dual-frequency mode selection module enables operation of the direct mode at a sub-6 GHz carrier frequency and the relay-assisted mode at a millimeter-wave carrier frequency. A stochastic-geometry-based switching controller derives a closed-form coverage radius using spatial user modeling, and a mode switching unit initiates switching accordingly. An energy-efficiency optimization module determines an optimal D2D transmit power by incorporating transmission power, circuit power, and diffused incoherent scattering power."
