About

Alexey Solodkov is a researcher specializing in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) and their application in group robotics, with a particular focus on communication challenges in dynamic, decentralized environments. His work addresses critical issues in network architecture, protocol design, and physical-layer constraints for mobile robot teams. In his most cited paper, "MANET omnidirectional radio outdoor mapping with energetically concealed location" (2016, 6 citations), Solodkov introduces an innovative method for outdoor mapping by robot groups using omnidirectional radio links, while also exploring how to add radar-like functionality to wearable communication devices without hardware modifications—a contribution with implications for covert and energy-efficient operations. His earlier work, "Network challenges in mobile group robotics: MANET approach" (2015, 5 citations), systematically examines the key challenges facing MANET protocols and architectures in robotics, including the impact of physical-layer characteristics on network scalability and robustness. Solodkov’s research bridges the gap between theoretical network design and practical robotic deployment, offering valuable insights for students and engineers working on resilient, scalable communication systems for autonomous multi-robot teams.
