چکیده

The area of robot path planning and navigation has been studied by various researchers over the last decades, resulting in a large number of works. One of the most challenging fields in motion planning is dealing with unknown environment, which is known as online path planning. This paper aims to improve one of the most famous methods for online navigation, that is, Bug algorithm, which has been introduced by V. J. Lumelsky. An improved Bug algorithm was provided in our research and the simulation result for several cases shows its advantage in terms of path shortening. Also the justified Bug algorithm was compared with Bug algorithm and some of the well-known approaches in the field of robotic motion planning.

Point to Point Sensor Based Path Planning Algorithm for Autonomous Mobile Robots

The Bug algorithm is a local path planning methodology which detects the nearest obstacle as a mobile robot moves towards a target with limited information about the environment. It uses obstacle border as guidance toward the target. In Bug algorithm, the robot circumnavigates the obstacle till it finds certain condition to fulfill algorithm criteria to leave the obstacle toward target point. T...

A multiple criteria algorithm for planning the itinerary of mobile sink in wireless sensor networks

The mobile sink can increase the efficiency of wireless sensor networks. It moves in a monitored environment and collects the network nodes information. Thus, by the sink we can balance the power consumption and increases the network lifetime. Determining path of the sink's movement is usually modeled as an optimization problem where finding optimal solutions require collecting value of all the...
