Robot Communications at the Championship
I'm sure FIRST has got this covered, I'm just interested so I thought maybe someone could shed some light on this subject:
with 4 fields running simultaneously fairly close to each other, is it necessary to set up the communication in a special way to avoid communication problems? if so what do you imagine (or know) this configuration to be?
would a WiFi expert look at this setup (24 robots running simultaneously on 24 different networks) and see a potential problem, or would he shrug it off as a non-issue?
I'd appreciate to learn more about the advantages and limitations of the 802.11n protocol and the configuration used.
