A bandwidth reservation scheme by QoS ad hoc networking is investigated for wideband signal transmission in multi-robot rescue systems. The wideband signals such as moving picture images must be transmitted from robots to their base station that provide the operators with essential informations of the disaster area. As the QoS scheme for the ad hoc networking in multi-robot rescue systems, rapid control...
Integrated operations of a multi-robot rescue system are investigated. The system consists of a base station (BS) and autonomous mobile robots. A wireless ad hoc network connects all of them. Mobile robots coordinatedly explore a disaster area to detect victims and send their information to operators at the BS. Three related subjects are reviewed in this paper. First, autonomous chain network formations...
A coordination procedure is proposed for a multi-robot rescue system that performs real-time exploration over disaster areas. Real-time exploration means that every robot exploring the area always has a communication path to human operators standing by a monitor station and that the communication path is configured by ad hoc wireless networking. The proposed system procedure consists of the autonomous...
We investigated a collaboration scheme for rescue robots for reliable and effective operation of rescue systems using robots. The investigation focused on the collaborative movement of robots to maintain their wireless network. We propose classifying the robots into search robots and relay robots and using a behavior algorithm for their collaborative movement. According to the algorithm, search robots...
