Abstract
We propose the use of a hybrid predictor at the receiver side of a teleoperation system to mitigate haptic artifacts due to packet losses. We define maximum wait times based on prediction angles for the sender to trigger new updates and for the receiver to switch prediction methods. Results show robust minimization of signal distortion in the presence of adverse transmission conditions while preserving the data rate conveniently low.
