ABSTRACT
At present, the technique of coordinating a team of robots in a manner that is responsive to communication failures, presents itself as an actual challenge. In swarm scenarios where the concept for the teams of robots requires performing cooperative tasks, robots need to be enforced to communicate with each other in the background while executing specific collaborative missions. In order to achieve complex tasks in real-time beyond their individual capability, multi-robot systems (MRS) require a stable, sustained and secure stream of data exchange. Typically, this technique also requires an approach of communication and synchronization among the robots known as swarm R2R (robot to robot) communication in real time [1]. This paper presents a theoretical concept for a wireless mesh robot network that can be protected against electromagnetic interference (EMI), electromagnetic jamming, RF denial-of-service (DoS) attacks, and eavesdropping. The team behind this paper aims to present and propose a conceptual model for a hybrid short-range modular wireless transceiver (HSMWT) used in a distributed network environment. Specific issues on designing HSMWT based on the light and sound mediums for this environment will be explored.
