Abstract Many robotics applications benefit from cooperative exploration by multiple robots. Often the environments that they operate in contain significant communication challenges due to their size or complexity. There has been much work in keeping teams of autonomously exploring robots connected to one another, but in certain environments, distant locations can only be reached if robots relay information via teammates or explore autonomously beyond team communication range.
