TrueMobile: A Mobile Robotic Wireless and Sensor Network Testbed
Overview Simulation has been the dominant research methodology in wireless and sensor networking. When mobility is added, the frequency of real-world experimentation becomes tiny. However, it is becoming clear that simulation models do not sufficiently capture radio and sensor irregularity in a complex, real-world environment, especially indoors. Unfortunately, the high costs in labor, equipment, and tedium of truly mobile experimental infrastructure in real-world environments typically present an insurmountable barrier to such experimentation. This paper describes the experience in creating an initial testbed to lower those barriers. The system, called "TrueMobile," already deployed for public use, provides the first remotely-accessible mobile wireless and sensor testbed.
