Described Navigation module for be calculated positioning body to class rectangle environment four edges actual range when,
Described Navigation module is first in order to according to the position of described ultrasonic sensor relative localization main body, positioning body Course and the distance measurement value of ultrasonic sensor calculate described positioning body center to the four of four edges of class rectangle environment Individual measured distance value;Before being calculated described measured distance value, described Navigation module is also described ultrasonic in order to implement The process of wave sensor screening, in this process, first calculates each described ultrasonic sensor with respect to class rectangle environmental map Direction, then portion of ultrasonic sound wave sensor, the supersonic sensing only just not filtered are filtered out according to the angle threshold of direction Subsequent step implemented by device.
Described Navigation module in order to be compared measured distance value with Prediction distance value, calculates both differences again Absolute value, the size of the absolute value according to this difference sets the different weight of different measured distance values, wherein, difference absolute Value is bigger, and weight is less;Before the weight different to the setting of measured distance value, described Navigation module is also right in order to implement The process of measured distance value screening, in this process, by the absolute value of measured distance value and Prediction distance value difference value and a threshold Value compares, if being more than this threshold value, this measured distance value is filtered out, only the measured distance value with regard to not being filtered carries out weight Set, and then implement subsequent step.
Then, described Navigation module is weighted averagely suing for peace to measured distance value according to different weights, obtains Final actual range;
Finally, described Navigation module carries out the renewal of position according to final actual range to positioning body.
Specifically, refer to Fig. 5 and Fig. 6, the operating process of Navigation module can be realized with following steps:
Step a: with map coordinates system right as reference direction, be on the occasion of calculating each ultrasonic sensor when counterclockwise The direction of ultrasound wave, i.e. θ is launched in map coordinates system1+ heading-90 °, θ2+ heading-90 °, θ3+heading- 90 ° ..., θn+ heading-90 °, and be converted within 0 °~360 ° by modulo operation.Because only that angle of incidence is at ± 20 degree In the range of ultrasound wave obtains is vertical incidence distance, so screening retains ultrasound wave in the range of ± 20 ° for the angle of incidence and passes Sensor information.I.e. for available ultrasonic sensor, its angle of incidence is ± 20 ° of 0 ° (360 °), 90 ° ± 20 °, 180 ° ± 20 °, 270 ° ± 20 °, represented with multiple three-number sets here, i.e. (r11,d1), (r22,d2), (r33,d3) ..., (rn1n1, dn1), wherein n1It is the number of the ultrasonic sensor after angle filters, ri(i=1~n1) represent ultrasonic sensor to positioning The distance of main center, βi(i=1~n1) represents the angle that ultrasonic sensor is with respect to map coordinates system front-right, inverse time Pin is on the occasion of i.e. βi=mod (θi+ heading-90 °, 360 °), di(i=1~n1) represents the initial ranging of ultrasonic sensor Information;
Step b: in the array of ultrasonic sensors that the screening of step a remains, calculate each supersonic sensing The triplet information of device is converted to positioning body to the information at four edges of class rectangle environment.Certainly, each supersonic sensing Device is only converted to one side of class rectangle environment.Specifically, refer to Fig. 5 it is assumed that ultrasonic sensor i is with respect in map reference Incident direction in system in ± 20 °, then this ultrasonic sensor can correspond to positioning body to the right of class rectangle environment away from From if its three-number set information is (rii,di), using βiObtain angle of incidence γiIt is assumed here that βi=10 °, then γi=10 ° If (βi=95 °, then γi=| 95-90 | °=5 °, if βi=165 °, then γi=| 165-180 | °=15 °), obtain angle of incidence γi Afterwards, this measured distance value d can be calculatedi'=ri*cos(γi)+di
Step c: compare di' (i=1~n1) and corresponding 4 Prediction distances right apart from d_right, on apart from d_up, left Apart from d_left, lower it is compared apart from one of d_down.Specifically, the still γ to be given in step biAs a example=10 °, di' will be compared with d_right.If both have big difference, that is, absolute difference, more than a threshold value, such as 20cm, has | di'-d_right | > 20, then give up this di', otherwise retain this range information, and record and according to range finding from poor absolute value δi
Step d: in the supersonic sounding information remaining, for right, upper, left, under each edge, according to range difference δi(i=1~n2,n2It is the number of the ultrasonic sensor after distance difference filters) give each Actual measurement apart from certain Weight wiIf, range difference δiMore little then weight is bigger, otherwise weight is less.Circular is, taking right side edge as a example, false If δi(i=1~n_right, n_right correspond to the number of all suitable sonac of right) corresponds to The difference of i-th Actual measurement distance of right, di' then this di' weight be:
w i = 1 δ i 2 σ j 1 δ j 2 ,
HereRepresent and j=1~n_right is sued for peace;
Step e: according to the weighted average distance of distance and weight calculation positioning body to class rectangle surrounding, specifically, right In certain direction, such as map right, computational methods are:
d right = σ i w i d i ′
Wherein, di' it is the Actual measurement distance corresponding to map right being calculated in step b, hereRepresent to i=1 ~n_right sues for peace;
Step f: the position of positioning body is carried out more using 4 weighted direction average distances that step e is calculated Newly although the Actual measurement distance in 4 directions might not be obtained in each renewal simultaneously, but ultrasonic due to using Ripple array, at least can obtain the distance in 1 to 2 directions in most cases, obtain more such that it is able to carry out location updating Plus accurate position.
The present invention, on the basis of inertia device positioning, adds ultrasonic array range unit, ultrasonic sensor is set On positioning body, thus carrying out merging location navigation, solve the problems, such as cumulative error, further, the present invention also will predict Distance value and measured distance value are effectively used and integration, finally make the positioning result of inertial navigation system more accurate, navigation Performance is more preferable.
