Internet of Things (IoT) will be the root of agriculture soon, noted Professor Ribhu Chopra from IIT Guwahati. He was addressing one week AICTE ATAL Faculty Development Program (FDP) on the theme “Recent Trends in IoT” that was launched at SGSITS on Monday.

In this FDP, professors from IITs, IIITs, NITs and some industry experts from Industrial IoT will share their knowledge with 150 participants from about 18 states of the country for a week.

Chopra said that in the coming time IoT will prove to be very useful in the field of agriculture. Also, he told that in order to share information securely in IoT, it is also necessary to have physical layer security, otherwise due to device hacking, you can lose control from the devices.

Professor Sudip Biswas of IIIT Guwahati said that with the use of 5G, higher data rate with less battery consumption and guarantee of secure delivery of every single data. “Also, future vehicles will be controlled by IoT,” he said.

Biswas said that continuous research is going on in communication and IoT so that the life of the common man can be made easier. “There is a need to upgrade Antenna technology for smart IoT devices. MIMO antenna will play a big role in this,” he said.

Professor Prithviraj Guha of IIT Guwahati told that by using IoT, the actual location and news of a place can be obtained without any news channel.

Director of the institute, Professor Rakesh Saxena said that it is very important for any teacher to have a startup of his own, without which it is incomplete.

Course Coordinator Professor Manish Panchal gave information about the program. Professor Shekhar Sharma, Head of the Department of Electronics and Telecommunications said, “The department is continuously doing research in the field of antenna and getting patents and research papers, which will prove to be multi- faceted in the field of IoT.”
