Abstract
This paper presents the communication related design considerations of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) aided Multi-Robot Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM). In this approach, multiple robots perform WSN-aided cooperative SLAM using only range values to landmarks in the environment by measuring the Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) of the received radio messages, and odometry information. The SLAM algorithm proposed in this study uses the Rao-Blackwellized Particle Filters. In addition, the inherent communication problems in WSNs, and their effects on cooperative SLAM are explained in detail and shown with the results of The Network Simulator (ns-2) simulations.
