Performance Comparison Of Infrared (Ir) And Radio Frequency (Rf) Based Control Of Robotic Car

Remote controlled robotic vehicles are continuously finding novel applications in various industries. Accurate control of the robotic vehicle over a reasonable distance is considered as a very important aspect for almost all applications. There are various modes of communication between the transmitter and a receiver such as through Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Infra-Red (IR) and Radio Frequency (RF). This paper discusses both Infrared and Radio Frequency as the communication mode. This paper elucidates the applications of these two popular techniques. It clearly justifies and supports the efficient use of Radio Frequency over Infrared for wireless communication, through in-depth analysis of both the techniques on various figures of merits.
