Holonic communication structure in the team of cooperative autonomous mobile robots

摘要

Recently many authors have been concerned with the problem of cooperation between autonomous mobile robots. In this paper, we present a communication structure which is a part of holonic communication structure in the team of cooperative autonomous mobile robots. Our structure deploys a network of radio beacons which assists to the robot(s) in a coverage. This network is also used for navigation. The theoretical basis for holonic architecture of mobile robots and the communication models, which show the collaboration between the deployed network and mobile robot(s) for the complex tasks, are presented.
