Guwahati (Assam) [India], February 14 (ANI): Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati has accomplished the switch of know-how (ToT) of a novel free-space optical communication system to the telecom trade.
According to an official launch, the superior communication system makes use of wavefront modulated gentle beams for wi-fi error-free knowledge transmission by way of free area fairly than by way of optical fibre.
The know-how has been developed by Prof. Bosanta Ranjan Boruah, Department of Physics, IIT Guwahati, and Dr. Santanu Konwar, Assistant Professor, Department of Physics, Abhayapuri College, Assam.
It is value mentioning that the know-how has been granted with US patent dated June 2, 2020, Japanese patent dated December 23, 2021, and Korean patent dated December 28 2022.
Speaking concerning the know-how switch, Prof. Bosanta Ranjan Boruah, Department of Physics, IIT Guwahati, mentioned, “Free space optical communication is likely to play a crucial role in the coming days both in case of indoor applications and outdoor especially in the defence sector. We will be looking forward to meeting the challenges as our technology is adapted to serve society.”The analysis staff has experimentally demonstrated the distortion-free transmission of textual content messages and pictures in laboratory setting even within the presence of turbulence and in addition exterior the laboratory.
The communication system can thus be used for high-speed and secured communication between two distant websites within the line of sight with just about no risk of any unauthorised interception. (ANI)
