MUMBAI, India, Feb. 6 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511134155 A) filed by Manipal University, Jaipur, Rajasthan, on Dec. 31, 2025, for 'a system for real-time multi-vehicle cooperation using an edge-fog federated perception network.'
Inventor(s) include Siddhanta Kumar Singh; Rishika Singh; and Bhawana Sharma.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 6, under issue no. 06/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present invention relates to a system for real-time multi-vehicle cooperation using an edge-fog federated perception network. The system comprises an edge tier including a plurality of vehicles, each equipped with one or more sensors and an onboard processing unit configured to generate local perception data. The local perception data is abstracted into compact spatiotemporal perception vectors, which are transmitted to one or more fog nodes through vehicular communication links. The fog nodes perform federated fusion of perception vectors received from multiple vehicles to generate a local dynamic environmental model representing a unified view of the surrounding environment without exchanging raw sensor data. The fog nodes further compute local model updates based on the fused perception data. A cloud tier coordinates a federated learning process by aggregating model updates received from the fog nodes to generate an updated global perception model in a privacy-preserving manner. The updated global perception model is distributed back to the vehicles through the fog nodes to enhance onboard perception capabilities."
