Abstract
Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are a key component of many modern industrial systems. AGVs are supposed to communicate with each other in real time using wireless networks. In this article, the advantages and disadvantages of the ZigBee wireless network related to the control of AGVs are considered. We analyze the performance of the ZigBee network programmed with both C# and Python libraries to control ZigBee devices. The throughput and signal strength are presented and discussed depending on the transmission speed of the serial port, the payload size, and the presence and distance from the obstacles. The results of the experiments show the effective values of these parameters, the methods of using C# and Python, and the reliability of the throughput up to a certain point in network devices.
