A Study on Multirobot Communication
نویسنده
چکیده
Co-ordination, coupled with communication, is very important for any multi-robot system to successfully accomplish the task. Co-ordination and communication can multiply the capabilities and effectiveness of a group of robots. Having made great progress in the development of the basic problems concerning single-robot control, many researchers shifted their focus to the study of multi-robot coordination. This paper presents a systematic survey and analysis of the existing literature on coordination, especially in multiple mobile robot systems (MMRSs). A series of related problems have been reviewed, which include a communication mechanism, a planning strategy and a decision-making structure. A brief conclusion are given at the end of the paper.

Robust Multimodal Command Interpretation for Human-Multirobot Interaction
In this work, we propose a multimodal interaction framework for robust human-multirobot communication in outdoor environments. In these scenarios, several human or environmental factors can cause errors, noise and wrong interpretations of the commands. The main goal of this work is to improve the robustness of human-robot interaction systems in similar situations. In particular, we propose a mu...
متن کاملLocal communication of multiple mobile robots: Design of optimal communication area for cooperative tasks
This paper presents an optimal design for local communication between multiple mobile robots. In previous studies of local communication in multirobot systems, the area of communication was not designed using mathematical analysis, but only time-consuming simulations of multirobot communications. We analyzed the information transmission efficiency and created an optimal communication area that ...

متن کاملSold!: auction methods for multirobot coordination
The key to utilizing the potential of multirobot systems is cooperation. How can we achieve cooperation in systems composed of failure-prone autonomous robots operating in noisy, dynamic environments? In this paper, we present a novel method of dynamic task allocation for groups of such robots. We implemented and tested an auction-based task allocation system which we call MURDOCH, built upon a...
متن کاملHeterogeneous Multi-Robot Dialogues for Search Tasks
Dialogue agents are often designed with the tacit assumption that at any one time, there is but one agent and one human, and that their communication channel is exclusive. We are interested in examining situations in which multiple heterogeneous dialogue agents need to interact with a human interlocutor, and where the communication channel becomes necessarily shared. To this end we have constru...
متن کاملMultirobot rendezvous with bearing-only or range-only measurements
This paper studies distributed rendezvous strategies for multiple nonholonomic wheeled mobile robots with the aim of testing their practicality on real robots. We investigate control strategies which use just bearing-only or range-only measurements and do not need inter-robot radio communication to share the measurements. For the bearing-only case, two control laws proposed in our previous stud...
