in order that those skilled in the art will better understand the disclosure, the invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It is to be understood that the described embodiments are merely exemplary of the invention, and not restrictive of the full scope of the invention. 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.
Referring to fig. 1, which is a schematic structural diagram of a communication terminal according to an embodiment of the present invention, the communication terminal may include: the system comprises a satellite positioning module 110, a wireless network module 120 and a control module 130, wherein the satellite positioning module 110 and the wireless network module 120 are respectively connected with the control module 130.
the satellite positioning module 110 is configured to receive a satellite radio frequency signal, demodulate the satellite radio frequency signal when the signal intensity of the satellite radio frequency signal is higher than a preset first threshold, obtain first position information, and send the first position information to the control module 130;
A wireless network module 120, configured to receive at least one wireless network signal, obtain signal information of each received wireless network signal, and send the obtained signal information to the control module 130;
The control module 130 is configured to receive the first location information sent by the satellite positioning module 110, receive the signal information sent by the wireless network module 120, match the received signal information with signal information in a preset database, determine location information corresponding to the matched signal information in the database as second location information, and determine a target location according to the first location information and the second location information.
in the embodiment of the present invention, the satellite positioning module 110, the wireless network module 120, and the control module 130 may be integrated into a communication terminal, and of course, the communication terminal may further include a baseband module and a radio frequency module for transceiving communication signals. In addition, the communication module may further include a power module, and power may be supplied to each module of the communication terminal that needs to be powered through the control module 130.
The Satellite positioning module 110 may be a GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) positioning module. In practical applications, the antenna of the communication terminal may receive a satellite radio frequency signal, such as a GNSS radio frequency signal, and then transmit the satellite radio frequency signal to the satellite positioning module 110. After receiving the satellite radio frequency signal, the satellite positioning module 110 may determine the signal strength of the satellite radio frequency signal, and if the signal strength of the satellite radio frequency signal is higher than a preset first threshold, may demodulate the satellite radio frequency signal to obtain the first position information. The first location information may include latitude and longitude information and altitude information. In an embodiment of the present invention, the signal strength of the satellite radio frequency signal may be represented by the number of satellites available for positioning. When the signal strength of the satellite rf signal is not higher than the predetermined first threshold, the satellite positioning module 110 may not be able to correctly demodulate the satellite rf signal, and may not obtain the first position information.
After the satellite positioning module 110 obtains the first location information, the first location information may be sent to the control module 130.
it can be understood that, in a relatively open environment with less dense high-rise buildings, the signal strength of the satellite radio frequency signal received by the satellite positioning module 110 is strong, and the satellite positioning module 110 can obtain the first position information. However, in an indoor environment or a dense area of a high building, when the signal strength of the satellite radio frequency signal is not sufficient for the satellite positioning module 110 to determine the first position information, or the determined first position information is not accurate enough, further positioning can be performed through the wireless network signal.
In an indoor environment, a plurality of wireless network Access Points (APs) (access points) may exist in an area, and each AP transmits a wireless network signal to the outside. In an area covered by Wireless network signals, the Wireless network module 120, such as a WiFi (Wireless-Fidelity) module, may receive one or more Wireless network signals.
After receiving at least one wireless network signal, the wireless network module 120 may obtain signal information of each received wireless network signal, and send the obtained signal information to the control module 130. The signal information of each wireless network at least comprises identification information of the wireless network signal and can also comprise strength information of the wireless network signal.
in an indoor environment, due to the influence of propagation distance, obstacle distribution, and other factors, wireless network signals that can be received by the wireless network module 120 in different areas may be different, that is, identification information of the wireless network signals is different. Wireless network signals which can be received by the communication terminal at various typical positions can be collected in advance, and a database is established according to the identification information of the collected wireless network signals. The database may store identification information for wireless network signals corresponding to each representative location.
when receiving the identification information sent by the wireless network module 120, the control module 130 may match the received identification information with the identification information in the database, and determine the location information corresponding to the matched identification information in the database as the second location information.
For example, the pre-established database is:
A first position: corresponding to AP1, AP 2;
And position two: corresponding to AP1, AP3, AP 4;
And (4) position three: corresponding to AP2, AP 4.
The identification information sent by the wireless network module 120 and received by the control module 130 is: AP2, AP 4. The two identification information are matched with the identification information in the database of the previous example, and may be matched to position three, and the control module 130 may determine position three as the second position information.
In addition, because the wireless network module 120 receives the same wireless network signal in different areas with different intensities, the identification information of the wireless network signal and the intensity information of each wireless network signal that can be received by the communication terminal at each typical position can be collected in advance, and a database is established according to the collected identification information and intensity information of the wireless network signal. The database may store identification information and strength information of wireless network signals corresponding to each representative location.
The Strength of the wireless network Signal can be represented by RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indication). The distribution of RSSI may exhibit strong location specificity, that is, the received signal strength vectors of multiple APs in each area have uniqueness, from which indoor positioning can be achieved.
Specifically, the strength information may include an RSSI mean, an RSSI error, and the like, and the identification information may be a MAC address of the AP.
For example, the information recorded in the database is as follows:
A first position: AP1 with intensity (R1, R2), AP2 with intensity (R3, R4);
and position two: AP1 with intensity (R5, R6), AP2 with intensity (R7, R8);
and (4) position three: corresponding to AP1 with intensity (R9, R10), AP3 with intensity (R11, R12), AP4 with intensity (R13, R14).
The preset database can be established according to field test results, or can be established according to signal information and position information which are collected in advance and reported by multiple communication terminals. The embodiments of the present invention are not limited in this regard.
After receiving the identification information and the strength information of each wireless network signal sent by the wireless network module 120, the control module 130 may match the received identification information and strength information with the identification information and the strength information in a preset database, and determine the location information corresponding to the matched identification information and strength information in the database as the second location information.
for example, the identification information and the strength information sent by the wireless network module 120 and received by the control module 130 are respectively: AP1 with intensity x, AP2 with intensity y. The identification information and the intensity information are matched with the identification information and the intensity information in the database of the previous example, and assuming that x is between (R1, R2) and y is between (R3, R4), a location one may be matched, and the location one may be determined as the second location information.
the position information obtained by information matching according to the identification information and the strength information of the wireless network signal is more accurate.
In practical application, the satellite positioning module 110 can accurately position in a relatively open place where high-rise buildings are not dense; in an indoor environment, due to the influence of obstructions such as walls, the positioning accuracy of the satellite positioning module 110 is greatly reduced, and sometimes even the satellite radio frequency signal cannot be received, so that the first position information cannot be determined. In an indoor environment, the control module 130 may determine the second location information through signal information of each wireless network signal received by the wireless network module 120.
Therefore, in an outdoor environment without wireless network signals, the control module 130 may determine the current target location according to the first location information. In an indoor environment, if the satellite positioning module 110 is unable to determine the first location information, the target location may be determined from the second location information; if the satellite positioning module 110 can determine the first location information, the current target location can be determined according to the first location information and the second location information, such as determining the target location to be XX street XX mansion X floor. Realize indoor outer location.
By applying the communication terminal provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the satellite positioning module 110 can obtain the first location information, and the second location information can be determined according to the signal information of each wireless network signal received by the wireless network module 120, so that the target location can be determined according to the first location information and the second location information. Therefore, no matter in the relatively open environment with non-dense high-rise buildings or in the indoor environment or the dense area of the high-rise buildings, the positioning can be accurately carried out, effective position information can be provided for users, and the use of the users is facilitated.
Referring to fig. 2, in an embodiment of the present invention, the communication terminal may further include: a communication module 140 coupled to the control module 130.
The control module 130 is specifically configured to send the received signal information to the first server through the communication module 140, so that the first server matches the received signal information with signal information in a preset database and returns a matching result, and according to the matching result, position information corresponding to the matched signal information in the database is determined as second position information.
the pre-established database may be stored in the first server. After receiving the signal information sent by the wireless network module 120, the control module 130 may send the signal information to the first server, where the first server performs information matching, that is, matches the signal information with the signal information in the database stored in the first server, and returns a matching result to the control module 130. The control module 130 may determine the location information corresponding to the matched signal information as the second location information according to the matching result. Thus, the memory space of the device can be saved.
Certainly, a pre-established database may also be stored in the memory of the communication terminal, and when the control module 130 receives the signal information of each wireless network signal sent by the wireless network module 120, the signal information may be matched with the signal information in the database, and the position information corresponding to the matched signal information in the database may be determined as the second position information. In this way, network traffic may be saved.
in an embodiment of the present invention, the control module may be further configured to send the target location to the second server through the communication module, so that the second server outputs the exhibition target location.
the communication terminal can be connected with the second server through the communication module. The control module, after determining the target location, may send the target location to the second server. After receiving the target position, the second server may output the target position showing the communication terminal, for example, output the target position showing the communication terminal in an electronic map. If the communication terminal is a private network communication terminal, the position of the private network communication terminal can be conveniently monitored by personnel in a command and dispatch center in real time, and command and dispatch are facilitated.
it should be noted that the first server and the second server may be the same server or different servers.
referring to fig. 2, on the basis of the foregoing embodiments, the communication terminal provided in the embodiment of the present invention may further include: and the display module 150 connected to the control module 130 is configured to receive a display instruction from the control module 130 and display information related to the terminal state.

The control module 130 may send a display instruction to the display module 150. After receiving the display instruction from the control module 130, the display module 150 may display the information related to the terminal state, specifically, the information may be displayed in a form of text or picture. The user can view the state of the communication terminal in real time through the display module 150.
on the basis of the foregoing embodiments, the communication terminal provided in the embodiments of the present invention may further include: the key module is connected with the control module and used for receiving and identifying key operation of a user and sending corresponding key information to the control module;
And the control module is also used for receiving the key information and controlling and modifying the relevant parameters of the terminal according to the key information.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the Display module may Display the terminal related parameters through an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display).

Specifically, the key module may include a key and a key management chip connected to the key, where the key management chip is configured to identify a key operation performed by a user through the key, collect key information, and send the collected key information to the control module.

Corresponding to the above embodiment of the communication terminal, the embodiment of the present invention further provides a positioning method, which can be applied to a control module in the communication terminal, where the control module is respectively connected to a satellite positioning module and a wireless network module in the communication terminal.
In the following, a positioning method provided by an embodiment of the present invention is introduced, and a positioning method described below and a communication terminal described above may be referred to correspondingly.
referring to fig. 4, there is shown a flowchart for implementing a positioning method according to an embodiment of the present invention, where the method includes the following steps:
S410: and receiving first position information sent by the satellite positioning module.
The first position information is obtained after the satellite positioning module demodulates the received satellite radio-frequency signals, and the signal intensity of the satellite radio-frequency signals is higher than a preset first threshold value.
The Satellite positioning module may be specifically a GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) positioning module. In practical applications, the antenna of the communication terminal may receive a satellite radio frequency signal, such as a GNSS radio frequency signal, and then transmit the satellite radio frequency signal to the satellite positioning module. After receiving the satellite radio-frequency signal, the satellite positioning module can judge the signal intensity of the satellite radio-frequency signal, and if the signal intensity of the satellite radio-frequency signal is higher than a preset first threshold value, the satellite radio-frequency signal can be demodulated to obtain first position information. The first location information may include latitude and longitude information and altitude information. In an embodiment of the present invention, the signal strength of the satellite radio frequency signal may be represented by the number of satellites available for positioning. When the signal strength of the satellite radio frequency signal is not higher than the preset first threshold, the satellite positioning module may not be able to correctly demodulate the satellite radio frequency signal, and may not obtain the first position information.
After the satellite positioning module obtains the first position information, the first position information may be sent to the control module. The control module receives the first location information.
S420: and receiving signal information sent by the wireless network module.
The signal information is the signal information of each wireless network signal received by the wireless network module.
It can be understood that, in a relatively open environment with no dense high-rise buildings, the satellite positioning module receives a satellite radio frequency signal with a strong signal strength, and can obtain the first position information. However, in an indoor environment or a dense area of a high building, when the signal strength of the satellite radio frequency signal is not enough for the satellite positioning module to determine the first position information, or the determined first position information is not accurate enough, further positioning can be performed through the wireless network signal.
in an indoor environment, a plurality of wireless network Access Points (APs) (access points) may exist in an area, and each AP transmits a wireless network signal to the outside. In an area covered by Wireless network signals, a Wireless network module, such as a WiFi (Wireless-Fidelity) module, may receive one or more Wireless network signals.
after receiving the wireless network signals, the wireless network module can obtain the signal information of each received wireless network signal and send the obtained signal information to the control module. The signal information of each wireless network at least comprises identification information of the wireless network signal and can also comprise strength information of the wireless network signal.
it should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present invention, there is no limitation on the execution order of step S410 and step S420.
S430: and matching the received signal information with the signal information in a preset database.
s440: and determining the position information corresponding to the matched signal information in the database as second position information.
for convenience of description, the above two steps are combined for illustration.
In an indoor environment, due to the influence of factors such as propagation distance and obstacle distribution, wireless network signals that can be received by the wireless network module in different areas may be different, that is, identification information of the wireless network signals is different. Wireless network signals which can be received by the communication terminal at various typical positions can be collected in advance, and a database is established according to the identification information of the collected wireless network signals. The database may store identification information for wireless network signals corresponding to each representative location.
When the control module receives the identification information sent by the wireless network module, the control module can match the received identification information with the identification information in the database, and determine the position information corresponding to the matched identification information in the database as the second position information.
In addition, because the wireless network modules receive the same wireless network signal with different intensities in different areas, the identification information of the wireless network signal and the intensity information of each wireless network signal which can be received by the communication terminal at each typical position can be collected in advance, and a database is established according to the collected identification information and intensity information of the wireless network signal. The database may store identification information and strength information of wireless network signals corresponding to each representative location.
the Strength of the wireless network Signal can be represented by RSSI (Received Signal Strength Indication). The distribution of RSSI may exhibit strong location specificity, that is, the received signal strength vectors of multiple APs in each area have uniqueness, from which indoor positioning can be achieved.
Specifically, the strength information may include an RSSI mean, an RSSI error, and the like, and the identification information may be a MAC address of the AP.
