Cooperative Navigation in Sparsely Populated Swarms
Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2015, Vol 17, Issue 4
Abstract
Abstract: The current state of the art techniques for robot swarm navigation use communication assisted localinteractions to achieve a cooperative solution to the problem. While this solution provides optimum, nearshortestpaths in swarms of considerable population, it fails to scale well with reduction in population. Wepropose a solution to this shortcoming by incorporating cardinality in the swarm and utilizing it to imposeconstraints on the robots’ possible movements. We have tested our solution using time and population asparameters of performance. We compare the performance with existing communication assisted algorithm toaccentuate the improvement in performance and outline possible future work in the area

Elaborating the performance of Sensor Networks with merest energy to prolong network endurance
The routing process in Wireless Sensor Networks may differ from other normal routing methods because it contains no link to follow and no definite structure. The Wireless Sensor Networks is created by densely de...
MDSR to Reduce Link Breakage Routing Overhead in MANET Using PRM
Dynamic Source Routing (DSR) algorithm is simple and best suited for high mobility nodes in wireless ad hoc networks. Due to high mobility in ad-hoc network, route may not exit for long time. Hence, DSR alg...
