The paper “Analysis of Safe Ultrawideband Human-Robot Communication in Automated Collaborative Warehouse” has been presented in the poster session of the 14th European Conference on Antennas and Propagation (EuCAP 2020, https://www.eucap2020.org/) held online in period from 1st to 30th of June 2020.It presents the propagation analysis of ultrawideband Gaussian signal in an automated collaborative warehouse environment where human and robots communicate to ensure that mutual collisions do not occur. The warehouse racks are principally modeled as clusters of metallic (PEC) parallelepipeds, with dimensions chosen to approximate the realistic warehouse. The signal propagation is analyzed using a ray tracing software, with the goal to calculate the path loss profile for different representative scenarios and antenna polarizations. The influence of the rack surface roughness onto propagation is also analyzed. The guidelines for optimum antenna positions on humans and robots for safe communication are proposed according to the simulations results.
