项目摘要

This is research on an infrared wireless communications system used for cooperative operation of multiple mobile robots. The communication system that can use not only mutual communication but also detect their position was studied. A partner robot's transmitting signal can be used as a beacon signal that shows its position. The direction of each beacon signal is detected using a PSD (Position Sensitive Device: photo-diode incidence angle sensor) in its receiver circuit, and mutual positions are computed by the triangulation ranging based on their directions.In a distributed controlled wireless communication network, unnecessary signals confuse communications. We analyzed the spatial factor of interference. When three robots in which one is a receiver and others are transmitters form a triangle, they cause communication interference. When restricting the angle of each optical receiver to less than 60 degrees, the greatest inside angle of the triangle formed by communicating robots becomes greater than 60 degrees. A robot that has the greatest inside angle becomes an arbiter and it controls mutual communication. In a simulation, we confirmed the solution of reducing interference is using an arbiter.We examined an infrared transceiver circuit that combines high-speed data transmission with accurate incidence angle detection. A PSD has two or four signal outputs, and an incidence angle is calculated from the difference in strength of their signals. We found the property of transmission signal of the infrared wireless communication system is a pulse signal, and we examined noise reduction using the property of the signal. Also we examined the NRZI encoded HDLC data transmission to detect suspension of communication links.We will study the infrared wireless communication system for multi robot mutual communication based on these research results.

这是对用于多个移动机器人合作操作的红外无线通信系统的研究。不仅可以使用相互通信，而且还检测其位置的通信系统。合作伙伴机器人的传输信号可以用作显示其位置的信号信号。使用PSD（位置敏感设备：照片二极管入射角传感器）在接收器电路中检测到每个信号信号的方向，并根据其方向进行三角剖分范围计算相互位置。我们分析了干扰的空间因素。当三个是一个接收器而其他的机器人形成发射器时，它们会导致通信干扰。当将每个光学接收器的角度限制为小于60度时，通过通信机器人形成的三角形的最大内部角度大于60度。具有最大内部角度的机器人变成了仲裁者，它控制着相互交流。在模拟中，我们确认了减少干扰的解决方案是使用仲裁器。我们检查了一个红外收发器电路，该电路将高速数据传输与准确的入射角检测相结合。 PSD具有两个或四个信号输出，并根据信号的强度差来计算入口角度。我们发现红外无线通信系统的传输信号的属性是脉冲信号，我们使用信号的属性检查了降噪。我们还检查了NRZI编码的HDLC数据传输以检测通信链接的悬架。我们将根据这些研究结果研究红外无线通信系统，用于多机器人相互通信。
