Guaranteeing mission continuity when up to 50% of the swarm is abruptly destroyed or disconnected.
Robots monitor the Fiedler eigenvalue of the communication graph in real time. If connectivity drops toward zero, designated scout nodes move outward to act as communication bridges, restoring network integrity.
Under complete communication blackouts, the swarm splits into autonomous independent sub-clusters that execute localized objectives, seamlessly re-fusing into a master collective upon regaining radio contact.
