Abstract
We have been developing an information-gathering system using mobile robots and wireless sensor networks(WSNs) in underground space in post-disaster environments. In our system, mobile robots carry wireless sensor nodes(SN) and deploy them into the environment. This paper describes a method for measuring communication quality for wireless teleoperations in wireless sensor networks. In a wireless teleoperation and WSNs deployment, a wireless communication quality measurement is very important. We developed a convenient communication quality measurement method. A teleoperation interfaces including the measurement function using the proposed method was implemented, and an evaluation experiment was conducted. Experimental results using a proposed method are presented.
