A Robotic-aided IoT System for Automatic Deployment of 6TiSCH Networks

The automated deployment of IoT systems in industrial environments is an open challenge. In this work, latest research by the authors on this topic is presented. To this end, a design methodology has been conceived for the set up of a fully connected IoT network in a target area. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology, an experimental testbed has been set up, consisting of an Unmanned Ground Vehicle that deploys an IoT network both in a laboratory and outdoor environment.
