Packet Loss Tolerant Image Transmission for Mobile Robot Tele-Operation Using Low Throughput Communication

Abstract

In the past, we have described a method of information collection using a mobile robot in a closed space during a disaster. However, there is a problem that the mobile robot gets lost due to the disconnection of wireless communication during information collection. Therefore, to prevent mobile robot from getting lost in a closed space, a distress prevention method using low throughput communication has been proposed. However, it is difficult to transmit images using low throughput communication in TCP/IP compliant teleoperation. In this paper, we discuss an image transmission method that is robust to packet loss using low throughput communication.
