An Open Communication Architecture for Multi-Robots in Complex Environment

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, the advantages and disadvantages of different communication means of multi-robots were analyzed. Then, a explicit communication together with implicit communication architecture was proposed, which takes advantage of the social laws established for them to cut down the communication traffic and achieve reciprocal communication among robots. The validity of the foregoing methods has been testified by the simulation experiments of the collaborative surround of Multi-robots.
