Abstract:

The article focuses on the network-centric approach to the development of the «internet of things» concept by creating an interactive remote control system for robotic objects. This approach was used in a series of space experiments conducted by specialists of Center for Robotics and Technical Cybernetics and SPbGPU. To describe the network infrastructure we propose to use a hierarchical approach which allows to distinguish three levels of information interaction processes between network objects, particularly onsurface robots and human operator. In the paper is proposed the second mesoscopic level that describes informational transmission processes associated with the formation of virtual connections with the desired level of quality of service, in particular the packet delay values to ensure the telepresence of operator in zone operations.
