Represented from c.Now base station BS 1, base station BS 2, the position relative to each other of base station BS 3 are and understand, therefore, it can with a certain
The reference point related to base station location is origin of coordinates o, sets up coordinate system xoy, and base station BS 1, base station BS 2, base station BS 3 are being sat
Relative position in mark system is known.Embodiment illustrated in fig. 8 exemplarily with base station BS 1 be origin of coordinates o, with base station BS 1
With the line direction of base station BS 3 as x-axis, coordinate system xoy has been obtained.Now, coordinate of the base station BS 1 in coordinate system xoy is
(0,0), coordinate of the base station BS 3 in coordinate system xoy is (b, 0), and coordinate of the base station BS 2 in coordinate system xoy is
Alignment system is being treated when positioner MS is positioned, it is necessary to be existed using base station BS 1, base station BS 2, base station BS 3
Coordinate in coordinate system xoy, so as to obtain coordinates of the device MS to be positioned in coordinate system xoy.When alignment system is positioned at a certain
When in specific environment, for example alignment system is in indoor environment, if it is seat to be intended to a certain specified reference point in indoor environment
Mark origin o', sets up coordinate system x'o'y', and determines coordinates of the device MS to be positioned in coordinate system x'o'y', then need to sit
Mark system xoy, is mapped in coordinate system x'o'y'.
The present embodiment exemplarily provides a kind of coordinate system mapping method, and the alignment system in embodiment illustrated in fig. 8 is in
Indoor environment, the oblique line portion in Fig. 8 is the section of indoor wall, and the indoor wall is orthogonal straight wall.
For the ease of coordinate system xoy is mapped in coordinate system x'o'y', can be during base station to be laid, basis sets in reference chamber
Apply.In the embodiment shown in fig. 8, base station BS 1 and base station BS 3 are laid on indoor wall, then the x-axis in coordinate system xoy with
X' axles in coordinate system x'o'y' are parallel, and y-axis in coordinate system xoy is parallel with the y' axles in coordinate system x'o'y'.If ignoring
The influence of base station shape in itself, can be overlapped with two coordinate systems of Approximate Equivalent, if shape can not be ignored in itself for base station, be needed in advance
The geomery of base station is measured, and is applied to the mapping of coordinate system.
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that in coordinate system mapping process, be not limited to wall as reference, can be with
Using in environment any one physics fixed is nominal as reference, which kind of demarcation thing is selected as reference, by wanting dress to be positioned
Put during which reference frame MS is mapped to and determine.
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that what is set up in the embodiment shown in fig. 8 is planar two dimensional coordinate system, then it is assumed that
Three base stations are in identical level height.In other embodiments, if 3 d space coordinate system to be set up, need to introduce another
One base station, and the distance between the base station and base station BS 1, base station BS 2 and base station BS 3 is measured, so as to be sat in a space three-dimensional
In mark system, each base station position relative to each other is uniquely determined.
Using transmitting-receiving distance measuring signal measurement base distance between sites between the utilization base station, and coordinate is set up using base distance between sites
The method of system is solved in the prior art by the way of manual measurement is carried out by measuring instruments such as total powerstation, laser range finders
When setting up coordinate system, human cost is huge, be limited to laying environment and the measurement error due to instrument, the human error of base station
Deng influence, the poor problem of the precision that causes.
As the above mentioned, although have illustrated and described the preferred embodiments of the present invention, but without departing substantially from this hair
In the case of bright spirit and scope, many changes can be carried out.Thus, the scope of the present invention is not by the open institute of preferred embodiment
Limitation.But, the present invention should be determined entirely by reference to following claims.
