Abstract
The aim of this paper is to describe development of an evaluation system for practical comparison of wireless communication technologies used in field robotics. The evaluation system is capable of measuring data rate, drop rate and latency in both communication directions. The evaluation system closely simulates communication of a teleoperated field robot with its base station - which is a highly asymmetric communication link, because there is a high data rate video feed transmission from the robot to the base station.
This paper describes specifics of wireless communication links used in field robotics and considerations that need to be taken into account when developing such system. The wireless link evaluation system is described from hardware and software point of view.
