Abstract

Authors have been discussing an information-gathering system using mobile robots and wireless sensor networks (WSNs) in post-disaster underground space. WSN is able to provide a monitoring system and wireless communication infrastructure in post-disaster environment. This system is a network configured of a number of wireless communication devices called Sensor node (SN). In our system, mobile robots carry SNs and deploy them into underground space to construct WSN. This paper shows a throughput measurement method using communication packet of tele-operating mobile robot in between mobile robot and SN. Then a performance of the proposed method was evaluated by comparing measuring accuracy of existing method in field test. Then availability of our proposed method was confirmed by experimental results.
