Abstract

With the improvement of sensors, intelligence and wireless communication technologies, the service robot is faced with a new rapid development opportunity, which can utilize pervasive computing of wireless network to sensing everything happened in whole context. This paper presents a novel service robot global context-aware network, and puts emphasis on four key issues, such as ultra wideband radio, wireless positioning technology, wireless body area network and dynamic Bayesian network.
