Abstract: In this paper we present the construction of an autonomous self navigating robotic vehicle. This robotic vehicle uses GPS to automatically navigate itself to the instructed location. Once the robot reaches the desired location it turns on a RF Transmitter which is tuned to the communication frequency of the opposing unit. This RF transmitter transmits random noise continuously. Since the transmission is in the same frequency as that of the communication frequency of the opposing unit, their communication will become noisy and they will be unable to do any meaningful communication. The robotic vehicle essentially contains a GPS receiver, a microcontroller unit and a RF transceiver, in addition to the motors that run the robotic vehicle. The robotic vehicle can be commanded to go to a certain location using the GPS co-ordinates of the location. These co-ordinates are given to the robot using a RF data link. Once the robot receives the GPS co-ordinates, the robot starts its process and automatically navigates itself to the commanded location with the help of the on board GPS receiver
