MUMBAI, India, Jan. 3 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202511102896 A) filed by Lovely Professional University, Phagwara, Punjab, on Oct. 25, 2025, for 'distributed smart agricultural sensor network with self calibrating multi parameter soil probes.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. Harjinder Kaur; and Dr. Rajni Bhalla.

The application for the patent was published on Dec. 12, under issue no. 50/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "A distributed smart agricultural sensor network (100) comprising soil probes (102) with multi-parameter sensors for measuring moisture, pH, nitrogen, and potassium levels. Each probe (102) includes a self-calibration module (106) with microfluidic channels and reference solution reservoirs for automated in-situ calibration, and a low-power FPGA processing module (104) for real-time data correction and multi-parameter analysis. Processed data is transmitted via long-range LoRa modules (108) to a central hub (110) for visualization, analytics, and anomaly detection. Solar-powered probes (102) ensure year-round autonomous operation with minimal energy consumption. The system (100) supports scalable deployment with up to 100 probes per hub (110) and improves accuracy by 15-25% compared to conventional static sensors. The network enables precision farming, reduces labor, and optimizes irrigation and fertilization decisions through reliable, high-accuracy soil monitoring."
