Embodiment Construction

[0018] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Such as figure 1 As shown, a single functional module is composed of a microcontroller, a 2.4GHz wireless transceiver and four 433MHz wireless transceivers; the 433MHz wireless transceiver establishes the internal communication network of the modular self-reconfigurable robot consortium, while the 2.4GHz wireless transceiver can As the central controller of the modular self-reconfigurable robot, it commands the sending and receiving terminal.

[0020] Such as figure 2 As shown, the functional module 1 is a square structure, and its 4 sides are respectively equipped with 433MHz wireless transceiver 11, 433MHz wireless transceiver 12, 433MHz wireless transceiver 13 13 and 433MHz wireless transceiver 14 14. Through the special design of the antenna and the adjustment of the chip transmission power to control the signal coverage of the 433MHz wireless transceiver...

Abstract

The invention discloses a communication apparatus of a modularization self-configuration robot and a communication method thereof, the communication apparatus comprises several functional modules, a side wireless transceiver is arranged at each side of each functional module, and the signals between side wireless transceivers at the side of the functional module are not mutually covered; a control terminal wireless transceiver and a microcontroller are arranged on the functional module; and the side edge wireless transceiver and the control terminal wireless transceiver employ different work frequency. The function modules are connected through side, the side wireless transceiver signal scopes are mutually covered; and one and only one of the control terminal wireless transceivers of several functional modules is in a working state, wireless and long distance communication of the modularization self-configuration robot can be realized, conjuncted configuration identification of the modularization self-configuration robot can be also realized; and the control communication of the whole modularization self-configuration robot and the control communication of each function module are not mutually interfered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a communication device of a modular self-reconfigurable robot and a communication method thereof. Background technique [0002] The modular self-reconfigurable robot system is composed of several functional modules with simple structure and limited resources. Multiple functional modules are assembled into various joints through connection mechanisms, such as snake joints, tripod joints, and quadruped joints. body shape. At present, the communication systems of modular self-reconfigurable robots mainly include CAN bus, RS485 bus, infrared communication, Bluetooth communication and wireless sensor network and other communication methods. CAN bus and RS485 bus belong to the wired mode, which cannot realize the communication between separate functional modules or different conjoined units; although infrared communication and Bluetooth communication solve the communication problem between different conjoined units, the communicatio...
