I been trying to come up with ideas for long range communication with a semi-autonomous robot. Using the existing cell phone network seems like the best option. Wireless data transfer via cell phones isnt as reliable as I'd like, however I remember reading and hearing something about using a translator to translate the communication into a language of sounds.
Maybe using the audible voice range of cell phones which I think is ~300Hz to 3400 Hz (human voice is ~85-255 including male and female).
or something like a binary morse code I'm not sure
Looks like this

Robot instructions from Ctrl Comp. -->
Audio Translation -->
Cellphone mic input--->
broadcasttorobot-->
robot's Cellphone ---via headset cord--->>
Audio Translator ----->
Robot's instructions
then using a series of h and lpf to divide the signal further, lower half for recieving upper end for transmitting. I really dont know just turning this idea around in my head.
I am no expert on this so if you have any ideas/comments please feel free to reply.
