AB  - Recent demands for mobile robots showed that those focus on the areas requiring mobility, such as delivery and logistics. At the same time, the development of mobile robots is also actively ongoing. In the case of mobile small-scaled robots, wireless communication is essential for most applications to connect and interact with external entities in various situations. However, existing communication protocols currently applied to small mobile robots were developed with different objectives. In other words, those wireless protocols may serve poorly for mobile robots. It is necessary to consider the future or optimal wireless communication for mobile robots via an in-depth analysis of communication protocols already applied to small mobile robots. In this paper, we aim to implement the comprehensive analysis and investigation of mobile robot trends and related service cases to provide directions and considerations for future robot-dedicated wireless communication protocols. In addition, we developed the service scenarios and generalized system structure of mobile robots with wireless protocols. We listed considerations and technical and policy directions as well.
