Mobile Robot Control Weighting for Communication Delay Stability

The patent introduces an autonomous driving module as an intermediary between the remote control system and mobile robot execution. This module receives control values from both the remote control system and autonomous driving algorithm, then fuses them to generate final control values. The intermediary processes control signals locally on the robot, eliminating the need for real-time communication for critical decisions and thus resolving the reliability issue caused by communication delays while preserving remote control capability.

The patent merges the remote control system and autonomous driving algorithm into a unified control framework. Instead of switching between modes, both control sources operate simultaneously with their outputs fused by a weighting mechanism. The remote control value and autonomous driving value are combined using weights that can be adjusted based on communication delay conditions, creating a stable hybrid control system that leverages both approaches without the instability of iterative mode changes.

The patent implements dynamic weighting of control values based on communication delay conditions. When communication delay is low, the remote control value has higher weight to maintain user control consistency. When communication delay increases, the autonomous driving value weight increases to maintain safety. This dynamic adjustment allows the system to adaptively balance between user control consistency and safety, rather than using fixed autonomous control that creates user dissatisfaction.
