“…Thus, it is a representative case for networked robotics where large distances are involved, such as in the monitoring of inspection robots for power transmission lines [13] and pipes [50], UAVs control, remote sensing, and navigation of mobile robots in large open fields. The choice of such scenario (i.e., a large outdoor area) was motivated by its importance for some envisioned applications of networked robots (e.g., smart cities, smart grids, agriculture, mining and military applications, etc.)…”

“…Therefore, path losses at 915 MHz for 130 different positions, with ranges varying from 1 to 40 km, have been obtained through simulations with the software LINKPlanner [50], as shown in Figure 2. LINKPlanner performs the calculations from the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) recommendations ITU-R P.526-10 and ITU-R P.530-12 to predict NLOS (non-line-of-sight) and LOS paths for anywhere in the world [52].…”

This chapter aims to present the fundamentals of the design of wireless communication links for networked robotics applications. First, we provide an overview of networked robotics applications, motivating the importance of the wireless communication link as an enabler of these applications. Next, we review the wireless communication technologies available today, discussing the existent tradeoffs between range, power, and data rate, and introducing the main concepts regarding the design of wireless communication links. Finally, we present a design example of a wireless communication link and the results obtained. We conclude the chapter with a discussion of the results and the challenges faced in the design of wireless communication links for networked robotics.

“…The use of in-line intelligent pipeline inspection devices which are called "Smart Pigs" [1][2] is usually the preferred method of inspection to determine the condition of oil pipelines. A large proportion of pipelines are, however, installed in such remote and hostile environments that 'pigging' is highly challenging.…”

“…Pipelines play an important role in a large number of modern industries [1,2], transporting fluids from one location to another, whether from one side of a factory to the other or across the breadth of entire continents. They are essential assets within water supplies, oil and gas production, and many other vital industries throughout the globe.…”

A comparative study of the vibro-impact capsule systems with one-sided and two-sided constraints

This paper studies the dynamics of the vibro-impact capsule systems with one-sided and twosided soft constraints under variations of various system and control parameters, including mass ratio, stiffness ratio, gap of contact, and amplitude and frequency of external excitation. The aim of this study is to optimise the progression speed and energy consumption of the capsule and minimise the required cabin length for prototype design used for engineering pipeline inspection. Our studies focus on three systems: the capsule with a right constraint, the capsule with a right and a weak left constraints, and the capsule with a right and a strong left constraints. Bifurcation analyses show that the behaviour of the capsule with onesided constraint is mainly periodic, and the dynamic responses of the other two capsules with two-sided constraints become complex when the stiffness of the left constraint increases. Based on our extensive comparisons, the following optimisation strategies are recommended. When the capsule speed is paramount, one can employ the two-sided capsule with a weak left constraint under large amplitude of excitation. When energy consumption is taken into account, the onesided capsule is preferable. When a miniaturized prototype is needed, the two-sided capsule with a strong left constraint is the best choice.
