The luminous intensity of LED is driven by framing signal modulation, so that LED emission carries the optical signal of framing signal.LED The optical signal for being sent is Jing after spatial transmission to receiver.The present invention is capable of achieving positioning merely with single led.
In step S120 (optical signal sensing step), LED is shot with default frame frequency by the imageing sensor in receiver and is existed Imaging facula in image sensor plane, using the gray value of each frame LED image for obtaining as a sampled value, acquisition connects Receive waveform.
Wherein, default frame frequency is preferably more than 2 times of LED emission signal highest frequency.

After imageing sensor obtains reception waveform, performing location algorithm by position solving unit carries out determining for receiver Position.
In step S130 (distance determines step), position solving unit is according to the luminous intensity of LED, LED in framing signal Luminous beam distribution character and the signal intensity for receiving, obtain the distance between LED of receiver and transmitter.
Specifically, the space attenuation model of LED luminous energies conforms generally to the luminous model of lambert, its channel response function For:
Wherein ARIt is receiver receiving area, d is the distance between LED and receiver, and φ is between LED and receiver Radiation angle, ψ is the angle of incidence of light, ψcIt is the maximum field of view angle of receiver, m is and half-power angle φ1/2Related bright Bochang Number, m=-In2/In (cos φ1/2).ψ can pass through projection relations of the LED in image sensing face and obtain.By imageing sensor Opto-electronic conversion, imageing sensor output distance measuring signal amplitude be:
V=RHd(0)·A (2)

This step is primarily based on the distance between receiver and transmitter and space relative angle with LED in camera coordinates The relation of the position coordinateses in system calculates position coordinateses of the LED in camera coordinates system, is then based on the locus coordinate of LED And position coordinateses of position coordinateses of the LED in camera coordinates system to receiver in camera coordinates system enter line translation, obtain The locus coordinate of receiver.
Positions of the LED in camera coordinates system is calculated first, according to the projection model of camera lens, (5) (7) two formula is substituted into (4) formula then has:
Orientation angular dependence then hasI.e.
And the distance between LED and receiver expression formula is:
By the equation group of the three groups of independence in (9)-(11), positions of the LED in camera coordinates system (cxi,cyi,czi)TIt is contained within Three unknown numbers, then can with simultaneous (9-11) equation group, can solve obtain positions of the LED in camera coordinates system (cxi,cyi,czi)T
Obtain positions of the LED in camera coordinates system (cxi,cyi,czi)TAfterwards, by the space of acquired LED before Position coordinateses (wxi,wyi,wzi)T, according to coordinate system transformation rule, then can obtain the locus coordinate of receiver, that is, determine The position of receiver, completes positioning.
