Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, and not all of the embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
the embodiment of the invention provides a positioning method.
referring to fig. 1, a schematic flow chart of an embodiment of a positioning method according to the present invention is shown, where the positioning method includes the following steps:
s11, when the positioning device needs to be positioned, judging whether the current position of the positioning device needs to be updated;
S12, when the current position of the positioning device needs to be updated, starting a GPS positioning module on the positioning device;
S13, acquiring WIFI hotspot data near the current positioning equipment, which are searched by a WIFI module in the positioning equipment;
s14, controlling a GSM module in the positioning equipment to upload the WIFI hotspot data to a positioning server, so that the positioning server obtains first position information according to the WIFI hotspot data, updates the current position of the positioning equipment according to the first position information when preset conditions are met, and returns a GPS positioning stopping command; the preset condition is that the positioning server can judge that the positioning equipment is located indoors according to the first position information, or the positioning server can judge that the positioning equipment is located outdoors according to the first position information and the positioning accuracy of the first position information is smaller than a preset accuracy threshold;
S15, when a GPS positioning stopping command returned by the positioning server is acquired, the GPS positioning module is closed;
And S16, when second position information is acquired through the GPS positioning module, closing the GPS positioning module, and sending the second position information to the positioning server, so that the positioning server updates the current position of the positioning device according to the second position information.
The WIFI hotspot data comprise names SSID, MAC addresses and WIFI signal strength of the WIFI hotspots.
the positioning server comprises a positioning equipment server and a WIFI positioning server. The WIFI positioning server refers to a server provided by a WIFI positioning service provider, and a huge WIFI information database is recorded in the WIFI positioning server to complete WIFI positioning.
In step S14, the working process of the positioning server acquiring the first location information according to the WIFI hotspot data is specifically that the positioning device server receives the WIFI hotspot data and forwards the WIFI hotspot data to the WIFI positioning server, and the WIFI positioning server matches the received name SSID and MAC address of each WIFI hotspot with data stored in the WIFI information database, and performs related algorithm operation in combination with signal strength of each WIFI to generate WIFI positioning result data, and returns the positioning result data to the positioning device server. The WIFI positioning result data comprises information about whether WIFI positioning is successful or not, and longitude and latitude information and positioning accuracy of the current position of the positioning equipment under the condition that the WIFI positioning is successful, wherein the longitude and latitude information is first position information.
In step S14, when the positioning server meets the preset condition, the working process of updating the current position of the positioning device according to the first position information is specifically that the positioning device server receives WIFI positioning result data returned by the WIFI positioning server, and introduces latitude and longitude information in the result data into a map of the server, so as to obtain a position corresponding to the latitude and longitude, and further know whether the position is indoor or outdoor, and when it is determined that the position is indoor or outdoor and the positioning accuracy of the first position information is smaller than a preset accuracy threshold, the positioning device server takes the position corresponding to the first position information as the current position of the positioning device. The longitude and latitude information is led into a map to further judge whether a position is indoor or outdoor, for example, a position is obtained according to the longitude and latitude information, and if the position is the position of a building, the positioning equipment can be judged to be indoor. In addition, the preset accuracy threshold is generally 100 meters, and it is default that when the WIFI positioning accuracy is less than 100 meters, the positioning accuracy is considered to be sufficient, and so on, and no further description is given here. The mode of judging whether the current position is indoors or not through the WIFI positioning server improves the accuracy of judging whether the positioning equipment is positioned indoors or not, and correspondingly, the accuracy of issuing the GPS positioning stopping command by the positioning equipment server in the embodiment of the invention is effectively improved.
in step S16, it should be noted that, after the self-positioning device starts the GPS positioning module, no matter how the WIFI positioning condition is, once it is detected that the GPS positioning module obtains the current position information of the positioning device, that is, the second position information, the self-positioning device immediately turns off the GPS positioning module, updates the current position of the positioning device with the second position information, and ends the positioning. In addition, after the positioning device starts the GPS positioning module, if the positioning device does not receive the GPS positioning stop command issued by the positioning device server, the positioning device continues to perform GPS positioning until the current position information of the positioning device is acquired by the GPS positioning module, and then ends this positioning, or after receiving the control command issued by the positioning device server, and then performs the corresponding operation.
it should be noted that after the WIFI module is turned on, the WIFI hotspot data near the current positioning device can be acquired in a short time, so in the embodiment of the present invention, when the turn-on duration of the WIFI module reaches the preset time threshold, the WIFI module is automatically turned off. Preferably, the preset time threshold is 5 s. In addition, if the WIFI module does not complete the WIFI hotspot data acquisition task within the preset time due to surrounding environmental factors, the positioning device server controls the WIFI module of the positioning device to reset and re-work, or the positioning device self-checks to autonomously control the WIFI module to reset and re-work when abnormality is detected. And if the continuous preset times of failures occur, directly skipping the WIFI positioning process, preferably, the preset times are 2 times.
it should be noted that, the data transmission task between the positioning device and the positioning device server is completed by the GSM module in the positioning device.
According to the embodiment of the invention, when the current position of the positioning device needs to be updated, the GPS positioning module is started, WIFI hotspot data near the positioning device is acquired and uploaded to the positioning server, first position information is acquired by the positioning server according to the WIFI hotspot data, and then the GPS positioning module in the positioning device is closed when the positioning device is judged to be located indoors or outdoors according to the first position information and the positioning accuracy of the first position information is smaller than a preset accuracy threshold. Generally, when the positioning device is currently located indoors, the GPS positioning module is unable to successfully position, and therefore, the environmental condition that the GPS positioning cannot be performed is identified in the first time, and the GPS positioning module is timely turned off, so that the positioning power consumption can be effectively reduced.
preferably, the positioning method further comprises:
acquiring a position updating success message sent by the positioning server, and recording the acquired time; the location update success message is generated by the positioning server after updating the current location of the positioning device.
It should be noted that, after the current position of the positioning device is updated each time, the positioning server generates a corresponding successful position update message, and sends the successful position update message to the positioning device, and the positioning device receives the successful position update message and records the time of reception, so as to determine whether to update the current position of the positioning device when the positioning device is to be positioned next time.
In a preferred embodiment, the determining whether the current location of the positioning device needs to be updated when the positioning device needs to be positioned specifically includes:
when positioning equipment needs to be positioned, acquiring the moving distance between the moment when the positioning equipment acquires the position updating success message for the last time and the current moment;
Comparing the moving distance with a preset distance threshold; and the number of the first and second electrodes,
and when the moving distance does not exist or is larger than a preset distance threshold, judging that the current position of the positioning equipment needs to be updated.
It should be noted that the positioning device further includes an attitude sensor module, which is used for acquiring an attitude parameter of the positioning device. By combining the successful location update message and the attitude parameter, the moving distance between the time when the positioning device last acquired the successful location update message and the current time can be obtained. During the period from the last updated position to the current moment, if the moving distance of the positioning equipment is smaller than the preset distance threshold, the position information of the positioning equipment does not need to be updated, namely, the positioning is carried out again, and the position information updated last time is directly used as the position information of this time; and if the moving distance does not exist or is greater than a preset distance threshold, judging that the position information of the positioning equipment needs to be updated. The absence of the moving distance means that the location update success message is not obtained, for example, the positioning device is used for the first time, and the location server has not updated the location information of the positioning device before that, so the positioning server will not generate the corresponding location update success message. In addition, if the moving distance is greater than the preset distance threshold, it indicates that the position of the positioning device has changed greatly from the time of updating the position the last time, and the position information updated the last time is not suitable for this time, and a new position information needs to be obtained again. Therefore, the attitude sensor is used for detecting the attitude parameters of the positioning equipment, and then the positioning strategy is adjusted, so that the positioning interval can be optimized, namely the positioning power consumption can be effectively reduced by reducing the positioning times.
in another preferred embodiment, the determining whether the current location of the positioning device needs to be updated when the positioning device needs to be positioned specifically includes:
When positioning equipment needs to be positioned, acquiring the moving distance between the moment when the positioning equipment acquires the position updating success message for the last time and the current moment;
sending the moving distance to a positioning server so that the positioning server compares the moving distance with a preset distance threshold value and returns a position updating command when judging that the moving distance does not exist or is larger than the preset distance threshold value;
and when the position command needing to be updated is acquired, judging that the current position of the positioning equipment needs to be updated.
the present embodiment is different from the above-described embodiments in that the task of comparing the moving distance with the preset distance threshold is performed by the positioning server in the present embodiment. Specifically, after the positioning device obtains the moving distance, the moving distance is sent to a positioning server, and the positioning server executes a comparison task; in general, the data processing capability of the positioning server is better than that of the positioning device, so that the embodiment can improve the data processing speed and be applied to scenes with large data computation amount.
Preferably, the positioning method further comprises:
when a position information request sent by a positioning server is acquired or a timing trigger in the positioning equipment is detected to trigger, the positioning equipment is judged to be positioned.
it should be noted that the triggering condition for the positioning device to start positioning once may be any one or any combination of several conditions, where the positioning is triggered by acquiring a position information request of the positioning server, and the periodic positioning is triggered by detecting a timing trigger inside the positioning device, that is, positioning is triggered once each time the timing time is up, or the detected variation of the attitude data collected by the attitude sensor inside the positioning device exceeds a preset attitude threshold value, so as to trigger positioning.
In a preferred embodiment, the positioning method further comprises:
And when the starting time of the GPS positioning module reaches a preset first time threshold, closing the GPS positioning module and sending a GPS positioning failure message to the positioning server.
It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the timing is started while the GPS positioning module is turned on, and if the positioning server has not issued the instruction to stop the GPS positioning to the positioning device, the GPS positioning module is operated until the turn-on duration of the GPS positioning module reaches the preset first time threshold, and the GSP positioning module is turned off. Generally, if the GPS positioning module can successfully perform positioning in the current environment, the current location information of the positioning device can be acquired within a certain time, and therefore, even if the positioning is continued, the possibility of success is extremely low in the case that the positioning exceeds a certain time but the location information cannot be acquired, so that the GPS positioning module is timely turned off, and the positioning power consumption of the positioning device can be effectively reduced. Preferably, the preset first time threshold is 2 minutes.

In this process, there is still a large power consumption of the GPS positioning module. Therefore, a second time threshold is additionally arranged, when the starting time of the GPS positioning module reaches the preset second time threshold, whether the positioning equipment is located indoors or not is judged again according to the maximum WIFI signal intensity in the WIFI hotspot data and the maximum GPS signal intensity of the GPS positioning module, and if the positioning equipment is located indoors, the GPS positioning module is timely closed, so that the positioning power consumption can be effectively reduced.

And when satellite searching failure is judged, the GPS positioning module is closed, and the GPS positioning failure message is sent to the positioning server.
It should be noted that, after the GPS positioning module is started, if the current location information of the positioning device is not obtained all the time and the command to stop GPS positioning issued by the positioning server is not obtained, the GPS positioning module continues to operate until the second time threshold is reached, and then whether the current location information is indoors is determined again, if the current location information is still determined to be indoors, the GPS positioning module continues to operate until the first time threshold is reached, and if the location information is not obtained, the GPS positioning module is closed, and a GPS positioning failure message is returned. In this process, there is still a large power consumption of the GPS positioning module. Therefore, a third time length threshold value is additionally arranged, when the starting time length of the GPS positioning module reaches the third time length threshold value, whether satellite searching fails or not is judged according to the satellite searching number and the maximum GPS signal intensity of the GPS positioning module, so that whether the positioning equipment is located at an outdoor position or a window position with poor GPS positioning condition or not is judged, and under the condition, the GPS positioning module is timely closed, and the positioning power consumption can be effectively reduced. Preferably, the preset third duration threshold is 30 seconds.

and if so, judging that the satellite searching fails.
preferably, the preset number threshold is 4, and the preset third signal strength threshold is 30.

Or, the determination is performed once every preset period, preferably, the preset period is 1 second, that is, when the start time of the GPS positioning module is from the second time threshold to the first time threshold, it is determined once every second whether the positioning device is currently located indoors, and when the start time reaches the third time threshold until the first time threshold is reached, a task of determining whether the satellite search fails every second is added.
