MUMBAI, India, Jan. 2 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541122951 A) filed by Vellore Institute Of Technology, Vellore, Tamil Nadu, on Dec. 5, 2025, for 'secure high-altitude base station with integrated real-time monitoring.'

Inventor(s) include Dr. Poongundran Selvaprabhu; and Deshpande Pranavi Girish.

The application for the patent was published on Jan. 2, under issue no. 01/2026.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "The present disclosure provides a high-altitude base station communication architecture (300) including a high-altitude platform (302) with a platform station router (304) operating at 17-22 kilometers altitude, a MIMO antenna array (306) connected to the router (304), and a beamforming controller (308) connected to the antenna array (306). The architecture includes terrestrial network infrastructure (310) with first and second backhaul routers (312, 314) connected to the platform router (304) for redundant communication paths, first and second core switches (318, 320) connected to respective backhaul routers, and a ground station router (316) connected to both core switches. End user devices (322) wirelessly connect to the ground station router (316). The MIMO antenna array (306) provides spatial diversity and beamforming operations to enhance spectral efficiency and reduce bit error rates."
