Dual-Swarm Features and Its Challenges for System of Sensor Networks and Multi Mobile Robots

چکیده

A swarm is a decentralized and selforganized collective with lots of simple but autonomous and homogeneous individuals. Swarm intelligence is defined to describe its emergent behaviors. Both Sensor networks and mobile multi-robots can have swarm features. The combination and cooperation of these two systems is a tendency recently. From the view of swarm organisms, the challenges of combination of sensor networks and mobile multi-robots are discussed and a layered dual-swarm framework is presented, which has a 3D communication structure, and which is possible to organically inherit traditional swarm technology while building an efficient interaction channel for both swarms to cooperatively work together. Finally, a control strategy based on virtual entities is introduced to induce and control the behaviors of the robot swarm through wireless sensor networks. Keywords¡ sensor networks, mobile multi-robots, dual swarms, controllability

Swarm behavior control of mobile multi-robots with wireless sensor networks

A swarm is a ‘‘complex adaptive system’’, which is decentralized and self-organized and whose individuals are simple, homogeneous and autonomous. Swarm intelligence is defined to describe its emergent behaviors. Both wireless sensor networks and mobile multi-robots demonstrate swarm features. This paper first discusses the challenges of combining wireless sensor networks and mobile multi-robots...

Representing a Model for Improving Connectivity and Power Dissipation in Wireless Networks Using Mobile Sensors

Wireless sensor networks are often located in areas where access to them is difficult or dangerous. Today, in wireless sensor networks, cluster-based routing protocols by dividing sensor nodes into distinct clusters and selecting local head-clusters to combine and send information of each cluster to the base station and balanced energy consumption by network nodes, get the best performance ...

Determining Cluster-Heads in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks Using Multi-Objective Evolutionary based Algorithm

A mobile ad-hoc network (MANET), a set of wirelessly connected sensor nodes, is a dynamic system that executes hop-by-hop routing independently with no external help of any infrastructure. Proper selection of cluster heads can increase the life time of the Ad-hoc network by decreasing the energy consumption. Although different methods have been successfully proposed by researchers to tackle...
