AB Mobile robots need to be able to communicate among themselves, as well as with hosts participating inthe task that they are all involved in. Wired networks are obviously not suitable for mobile robots. Currentwireless networks based on a fixed infrastructure (GSM, WiFi, etc.) to route packets may not be suitablebecause this infrastructure does not cover every place and the requirements of its resources. The bestchoice for mobile robots are Ad-Hoc networks, which are wireless and do not need a fixed infrastructure.This article describes PERA, a complete communications library including link, net, and transport layersfor mobile robots with reduced communications capacity. The network layer is based on a well-knownad-hoc routing protocol adapted to limited devices. This protocol has been implemented and tested onEyeBot mobile robots. Robots using PERA can send messages to other robots or hosts that are notdirectly reachable through their radio antenna range, by routing messages through intermediate mobilerobots also running PERA. The design, implementation, testing and lessons learned in the developmentof PERA are presented in this article
