This study investigates the processing of sonar signals using neural networks for robust differentiation of commonly encountered features in indoor robot environments. The neural network can differentiate more targets with higher accuracy, improving on previously reported methods. It achieves this by exploiting the identifying features in the differential amplitude and time-of-flight (TOF) characteristics of these targets. Robustness tests indicate that the amplitude information is more crucial than TOF for reliable operation. The study suggests wider use of neural networks and amplitude information in sonar-based mobile robotics |
