A mobile research laboratory

Autonomous Mobile Robot Research at Louisiana State University's Robotics Research Laboratory

Much of the primary research of Louisiana State University’s Robotics Research Laboratory (RRL) is conducted with the help of a specially modified Denning MRV (mobile robot vehicle) III research robot (figure 1). MRV III is an excellent test bed for robotics research: It has a straightforward user interface, it is easily modified to accept new features, and it ■ The Department of Computer Scien...

The Mobile Robot Laboratory

Systematic deployment of a mobile laboratory

This discussion paper is/has been under review for the journal Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics (ACP). Please refer to the corresponding final paper in ACP if available. Abstract In urban areas, air quality is the outcome of multiple emission sources, each emitting a different combination of air pollutants. The result is a complex mixture of pollutants with a different spatiotemporal variabili...

A MATLAB Based Cellular Mobile Communication Laboratory

In this paper, we present a novel MATLAB based Cellular mobile communication (CMC) laboratory course that comprises a total of ten experiments, covering the fundamental design parameters, considerations, and estimations of CMC both in the radio interface and core network levels. In the radio interface side, estimation of path loss, fading, power delay profile, and received bit error probability...
