Exploration of initially unknown environments is an online task in which autonomous mobile robots coordinate themselves to efficiently discover free spaces and obstacles. Several efforts have been devoted to study coordinated multirobot exploration assuming that communication is possible between any two locations. The problem of developing multirobot systems for effective exploration in the presence of communication constraints, despite its remarkable practical relevance, is comparably much less ...

Multirobot systems for exploring initially unknown environments are often subject to communication constraints, due to the limited range of their transmission devices and to mission requirements. In order to make decisions about where the robots should move, a communication map that encodes knowledge of the locations from which communication is possible is usually employed. Typically, simple line of sight or circle communication models (that are rather independent of the specific environment in which ...

The most tight intractability results for graph-based Multirobot Path Planning (MPP), proven recently, state that time-optimal and distance-optimal MPP problems are NP-hard on planar graphs. In this letter, we go one step further for what concerns the time-optimal objectives, and prove that such problems remain NP-hard when restricting the planar graph to a 2D grid graph with holes, which is a discretization widely used in robotics. Our reduction (from the Boolean satisfiability problem) cannot be ...

In several multirobot applications in which communication is limited, the mission could require the robots to iteratively take coordinated joint decisions on how to spread out in the environment and on how to reconnect with each other to share data and compute plans. Exploration and surveillance are examples of these applications. In this paper, we consider the problem of computing robots' paths on a graph-represented environment for restoring connections at minimum traveling cost. We call it the ...

In the Multiagent Connected Path Planning problem (MCPP), a team of agents moving in a graph-represented environment must plan a set of start-goal joint paths which ensures global connectivity at each time step, under some communication model. The decision version of this problem asking for the existence of a plan that can be executed in at most a given number of steps is claimed to be NP-complete in the literature. The NP membership proof, however, is not detailed. In this paper, we show that, in ...

During several applications, such as search and rescue, robots must discover new information about the environment and, at the same time, share operational knowledge with a base station through an ad hoc network. In this paper, we design exploration strategies that allow robots to coordinate with teammates to form such a network in order to satisfy recurrent connectivity constraints—that is, data must be shared with the base station when making new observations at the assigned locations. Current ...

Cooperative Multi-Robot Observation of Multiple Moving Targets (CMOMMT) denotes a class of problems in which a set of autonomous mobile robots equipped with limited-range sensors keep under observation a (possibly larger) set of mobile targets. In the existing literature, it is common to let the robots cooperatively plan their motion in order to maximize the average targets' detection rate, defined as the percentage of mission steps in which a target is observed by at least one robot. We present a ...

This paper tackles the problem of constructing a communication map of a known environment using multiple robots. A communication map encodes information on whether two robots can communicate when they are at two arbitrary locations and plays a fundamental role for a multi-robot system deployment to reliably and effectively achieve a variety of tasks, such as environmental monitoring and exploration. Previous work on communication map building typically considered only scenarios with a fixed base ...

In several applications, a robot moving from a start to a goal location is required to gather data along its path (e.g., a video feed in a monitoring scenario). The robot can have at its disposal only a limited amount of memory to store the collected data, in order to contain costs or to avoid that sensitive data fall into the hands of an attacker. This poses the need of periodically delivering the data to a Base Station (BS) through a deployed communication infrastructure that, in general, is not ...

Summary Background Results from retrospective studies suggest that use of neuromuscular blocking agents during general anaesthesia might be linked to postoperative pulmonary complications. We therefore aimed to assess whether the use of neuromuscular blocking agents is associated with postoperative pulmonary complications.
