INTRODUCTION
Problem Definition
Distributed Sensing, Data collection VIA mobile Ad Hoc
N/w
Formation of Subnets
Scenario
Bounded Region
Finite Mobile Robots :random
Transmission range ‘r’
Ad Hoc Network(MANET)
What is Ad Hoc network?
 No fixed Network Infrastructure
 Nodes communicate without AP
 For Mobile: node in proximity of another
WHY Ad Hoc Used?
 Position at t=0 and t=5 different,
uncertain
 Medium of communication: BROADCAST
Model Of Robot Connectivity
Algorithm Used By the
Author
Assumptions
Algorithm works well for
applications where
 Memory not a constraint
 Enough bandwidth available
 Intermittent Loss of data :Allowed
 Application not delay sensitive
4. Each robot’s data is marked with its IP, when 0 receives data from all robots
then the sampling for that period2.
is Every
complete.
0 is pre-programmed
know
all
Node
broadcasts datato to
neighbors
IP addresses before hand.
& each neighbor broadcasts received data
& its own data to its neighbors
1. All Nodes Sense data
0

r
3. Every time a robot detects another robot in range, then all data
within its buffer is broadcast to the new neighbor and to its neighbors
and vice-versa
Test Bed
Spatial Distribution in Bounded
Region
Simulation Results
Discussion and Future Work
Issue : Buffer Memory
Requirement : Unbounded Memory
Strategy : Circular Buffer
Disadvantage : Erasure of data
Food For Thought??
 When 2 robots in each others range
Both transmit data to each other..
 Result: Data corruption due to
interference of Broadcast??
