An Adaptive TDMA Protocol for Soft Real-Time Wireless Communication Among Mobile Autonomous Agents

Overview Interest on using mobile autonomous agents has been growing, recently, due to their capacity to cooperate for diverse purposes, from rescue to demining and security. Such cooperation typically requires the exchange of state data that is time sensitive and thus, applications should be aware of temporal data coherency. In order to provide such information a real-time communications protocol must be used to prevent unbounded latency of message delivery. This paper describes such a communication protocol that adapts itself to the current conditions of the medium attempting to deliver an adequate timeliness while using the least bandwidth.
