This paper presents a coordination algorithm for mobile autonomous robots. Relying upon distributed sensing, the robots achieve rendezvous, that is, they move to a common location....
The performance of multi-hop CSMA/CA networks has in most cases been evaluated via simulations, or analytically using a perfect collision channel model. Using such methods, one ca...
This paper introduces a fault-tolerant group communication protocol that is aimed at grid and wide area environments. The protocol has two layers. The lower layer provides a total...
Abstract-- This paper describes a navigation system that allowed a robot to complete 26.2 miles of autonomous navigation in a real office environment. We present the methods requir...
