- Abstract
- In this paper, algorithms for navigating a mobile robot through wireless sensor networks are presented. The mobile robot can navigate without the need for a map, compass, or GPS module while interacting with neighboring sensor nodes. Two navigation algorithms are proposed in this paper: the first uses the distance between the mobile robot and each sensor node and the second uses the metric calculated from one-hop neighbors' hop-counts. Periodically measuring the distance or metric, the mobile robot can move toward a point where these values become smaller and finally come to reach the destination. These algorithms do not attempt to localize the mobile robot for navigation, therefore our approach permits cost-effective robot navigation while overcoming the limitations of traditional navigation algorithms. Through a number of experiments and simulations, the performance of the two proposed algorithms is evaluated.
