MUMBAI, India, May 1 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202631051412 A) filed by Guru Nanak Institute Of Technology, Kolkata, West Bengal, on April 22, for 'energy-aware network control system for next generation communication.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Nabaneeta Banerjee; Mr. Tarpan Chakrabarty; Ms. Debattri Das; Ms. Debashruti Ganguly; Somerita Das; Sagnik Roy; and Sourajit Dasgupta.
The application for the patent was published on May 1, under issue no. 18/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "An intelligent energy optimization system and method for next-generation communication networks (5G/6G/IoT) that reduces network energy consumption using a layered architecture comprising user equipment, radio access, edge and core network layers, an Energy Monitoring and Feedback System and an AI-based Energy Optimization Controller. The monitoring system collects energy and operational metrics which the AI controller processes using predictive and adaptive models to forecast traffic demand and determine energy-minimizing control actions. Control actions applied via network interfaces include transmission power adjustment, base station/cell activation and deactivation, sleep scheduling, resource allocation, routing optimization and coverage adjustment. The system operates in a closed-loop to continuously refine decisions and maintain network performance, throughput and latency objectives, enabling energy-efficient, scalable and sustainable operation of dense and heterogeneous next-generation networks."
