Abstract

Wireless data links between mobile vehicles are optimized by positioning the mobile vehicles in default locations, creating a wireless data link between the vehicles, and measuring the initial capacity of the wireless data link. An extremum-seeking algorithm is then performed, in which the mobile vehicles are moved locally around their default locations, and the resulting changes in capacity of the wireless data link are measured. The algorithm mathematically determines, based on the measured changes in capacity of the wireless data link, optimum locations at which, when the mobile vehicles are positioned there, the capacity of the wireless data link reaches a local maximum value. The mobile vehicles are then moved to the optimum locations.
