Refer to Fig. 9, on the basis of embodiment above, introduce the localization method that mobile terminal side describes further.
901, mobile terminal sends framing signal to navigation system, with the positional information making this navigation system obtain mobile terminal position;
In embodiments of the present invention, this framing signal is for judging that mobile terminal supports the attribute of location technology, after such as mobile terminal sends framing signal to navigation system, according to this framing signal, navigation system judges which location technology mobile terminal supports, if support high-precision location technique, preferentially can adopt high-precision location technique, high-precision location technique comprises bluetooth high-precision location technique, ultrasonic wave location technology, end sensor navigator fix technology etc., if do not support high-precision location technique, hybrid positioning technology can be adopted, this hybrid positioning technology can refer to the combination of two kinds or two or more location technologies, this hybrid positioning technology can be the combination of WI-FI fingerprint location technology and other low precision location technologies, this low precision location technology can be cellular signal location technology etc., finally, this hybrid positioning technology defines a kind of high-precision location technique.Certainly, mobile terminal also self can measure the positional information obtaining position, finally, this positional information is sent to navigation system.
902, this mobile terminal sends signal characteristic value to navigation system, to make navigation system set up into fingerprint according to this positional information with signal characteristic value, and is updated in fingerprint database by this fingerprint.
In the present embodiment, mobile terminal can obtain this signal characteristic value from base station, and this signal characteristic value is sent to navigation system, and this signal characteristic value illustrates the signal strength signal intensity of each base station at location point.
Illustrate it is desirable that, if in fingerprint database, do not represent this fingerprint of mobile terminal position, then this fingerprint is added in fingerprint database, if there has been the fingerprint representing mobile terminal position, then compare the characteristic value similarity between fingerprint in fingerprint database and this fingerprint, judge whether to meet update condition according to characteristic value similarity, specifically can consult the content of enforcement two.
In the embodiment of the present invention, mobile terminal sends framing signal to navigation system, with the positional information making this navigation system obtain mobile terminal position; This mobile terminal sends signal characteristic value to navigation system, to make navigation system set up into fingerprint according to this positional information with signal characteristic value, and is updated in fingerprint database by this fingerprint, thus achieves the automatic renewal of fingerprint database.
For ease of understanding, with a concrete application scenarios, the localization method described in above-described embodiment is described in detail below, concrete:
The embodiment of the present invention, based on the application scenarios of the distributed micropower base station of indoor multimode, still supports bluetooth high-precision location technique and WI-FI fingerprint location technology for mobile terminal, launches a specific embodiment of the present invention further:
First, locating access points is integrated with AP module, can form WI-FI and cover, support that the mobile terminal of WI-FI can use WI-FI fingerprint location technology to position in this region in the interior space.
When using as WI-FI fingerprint location, mobile terminal detects the WI-FI signal characteristic of its position, namely each AP is in the WI-FI signal strength signal intensity of this location point, and the location-server reported in navigation system, the WI-FI fingerprint database of this position is stored in location-server, by comparing, the position at mobile terminal place can be estimated.
Secondly, locating access points is integrated with bluetooth detector, supports the measurement of the Bluetooth signal angle of arrival (Angle of Arrival, AOA).
When using as bluetooth hi-Fix, mobile terminal sends Bluetooth signal, bluetooth detector carries out arrival angular measurement, estimate the angle between mobile terminal and this access point, and estimated result is delivered to location-server, location-server processes the data that multiple access point reports, and combines the coordinate position of the access point be originally stored in location-server, just can estimate the position at mobile terminal place.
In addition, mobile terminal self also can measure the positional information of position.
Except providing different location technologies for different mobile terminal, another server being different from location-server in this navigation system can also realize automatic foundation and the renewal of WI-FI fingerprint database, specific as follows:
When navigation system is when using bluetooth hi-Fix, ask the WI-FI signal characteristic value of this its position of mobile terminal reporting to server, the location information sets of the mobile terminal position that this signal characteristic value and bluetooth hi-Fix obtain is built up a WI-FI fingerprint by server, for the renewal of WI-FI fingerprint database, the process that concrete fingerprint upgrades is: first, search the fingerprint whether fingerprint database has recorded this position, if do not had, then by the fingerprint of this newly establishment, be directly brought in fingerprint database, for follow-up position reference, if the fingerprint of this position existing in fingerprint database, then need to judge that this fingerprint newly set up upgrades the fingerprint in fingerprint database the need of going.A kind of may situation be fingerprint in the new fingerprint set up and fingerprint database be identical, now without the need to upgrading, fingerprint in the fingerprint that another kind of situation is newly set up and fingerprint database is completely different, and the fingerprint signal that such as environment change causes is different, now just needs to refresh.
Judge that whether two fingerprints are identical, be similar to by the distance calculated between two fingerprints, i.e. fingerprint signal distance, if this distance is less than certain threshold, then thinks two identical fingerprints; Otherwise, think two different fingerprints, need to judge whether to upgrade.
Fingerprint signal distance refers to the squared-distance sum of the vector of this each AP signal strength signal intensity composition.Give an example, suppose that the signal strength signal intensity of the fingerprint in fingerprint database is: (AP1_RSS1, AP2_RSS1, AP3_RSS1 ...); New establishment the signal strength signal intensity of fingerprint be: (AP1_RSS2, AP2_RSS2, AP3_RSS2 ...); Fingerprint signal distance then between two fingerprints is:
σ^2=(AP1_RSS1-AP1_RSS2)^2+(AP2_RSS1-AP2_RSS2)^2+(A?P3_RSS1-AP3_RSS2)^2……。
In order to ensure the stability of fingerprint database, after receiving and being different from fingerprint, do not upgrade at once, more new count value can be accumulated, such as represent same position but the finger print information being different from the existing fingerprint in fingerprint database receiving more than 3, the renewal of fingerprint database can be carried out.
Like this, navigation system does not just need foundation and the renewal of additionally doing WI-FI fingerprint database again, when not having WI-FI fingerprint database in server, if need to carry out to mobile terminal the positional information that WI-FI fingerprint location obtains mobile terminal position, then positioning result misses by a mile, but, use bluetooth hi-Fix, and after reporting fingerprint, the WI-FI fingerprint database of this position just can be set up gradually, originally each fingerprint reported, nearly all be added in WI-FI fingerprint database, when there being mobile terminal reporting fingerprint again, the probability overlapped with the fingerprint in fingerprint database increases, thus the probability being added to fingerprint database also will reduce.Therefore, when originally setting up fingerprint database, fingerprint database exists and increases progressively process stably rapidly, and finally, fingerprint database is tending towards perfect.
Like this, after fingerprint database builds up, if when having mobile terminal to need to carry out WI-FI fingerprint location again, just can make more accurate location, and get more and more along with the fingerprint of fingerprint database, the WI-FI fingerprint location precision of this navigation system is also more and more higher.
In addition, after fingerprint database builds up, because the factor of environmental change, the fingerprint in fingerprint database originally will become inaccurate, when now adopting WI-FI fingerprint location, precision can reduce, but along with supporting that the mobile terminal of bluetooth high-precision location technique constantly enters, new fingerprint is reported, fingerprint database will be upgraded, and positioning precision can progressively be recovered again.
Therefore this navigation system is the system of a self-recovery, can be real-time carry out fingerprint database renewal, the renewal of fingerprint database can not be interrupted because of other factors such as environment.
