Abstract

This paper proposes a distributed motion design for redeploying a team of networked mobile robots. The functionality of the design is to dynamically spread these robots for increasing the coverage area, and to adaptively allocate the channel capacity based on the amount of sensing data from each robot. A simulation platform using Matlab is also presented, and related statistical results are used to illustrate the performance of the proposed algorithm.
