MUMBAI, India, Feb. 27 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541132102 A) filed by Sri Manakula Vinayagar Engineering College, Pondicherry, India, on Dec. 26, 2025, for 'magnetic induction based communication on the agriculture field using wusn.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. R. Ramya; T. Sivaranjani; J. Saravanan; M. Abirami; T. Vijayalakshmi; and M. Santhanam.

The application for the patent was published on Feb. 27, under issue no. 09/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The titled invention discloses a magnetic induction based communication system for agricultural field monitoring and automated irrigation using Wireless Underground Sensor Networks (WUSN). The system comprises underground sensor modules (1) for measuring soil moisture, temperature, humidity, and nutrient (NPK) levels, connected to a Wireless Underground Sensor Network module (2) that transmits data using magnetic induction. A microcontroller processing module (3) receives and processes the sensor data and interfaces with an loT communication module (4) to transmit information to a cloud platform. A relay control module (5) operates irrigation devices based on real-time soil conditions, enabling variable rate irrigation. The cloud and monitoring interface module (6) allows remote access, monitoring, and control through mobile or web applications. A power management module (7) supplies regulated power for continuous field operation. The invention provides reliable underground communication, efficient water usage, and improved crop management, supporting precision and sustainable agriculture."
