THE INITIAL ANALYSIS OF WIFI COMMUNICATION (DATA INTERCHANGE) FOR AGV ON THE FACTORY SHOP FLOOR

Igor Ostrowski, Piotr Szulewski
Abstract:
The AGV (AGV-automated guided vehicle) platforms make simply transport tasks which can be easy automated and give big benefits on human work in production environment. One of problems in AGV evolution is the easy and efficient communication with base station. Such a link is most often built by WLAN using 802.11 standard. This is very important for AGV to keep communication with base station (supervising computer) on some minimal quality level because of needing continuous stream of control data. It is the crucial when the cloud computing is established and permanent synchronization is realized. In our opinion this crucial problem is not deeply analyzed as required. This issue joins the interesting subjects of wide technical areas from robotics to communication. This paper tries to shed new light for it.
