Development of Operability Measurement Method without Band Compression for Mobile Robot Wireless Tele-Operation Considering Reduction of Moving Accumulated Errors Occurred by Fluctuation of Packet Jitter

Abstract

To prevent communication failure and disconnection of wireless communication between mobile robot and operator, the operator has to monitor operability of mobile robot. Therefore, we have been developing communication quality measurement method for mobile robot. In this paper, we proposed mobile robot operability measurement method using CMD packet. It is not necessary to measure large quantity of packet in the proposed method, an operator is able to use communication band with efficiency. The communication quality measurement system using the proposed method is implemented on mobile robot, then we conducted evaluation experiment. We confirmed that packet jitter caused accumulated errors of mobile robot by experimental results.
