Detailed Description
Reference will now be made in detail to the exemplary embodiments, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the accompanying drawings, like numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the exemplary embodiments below are not intended to represent all implementations consistent with the present disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatus and methods consistent with certain aspects of the present disclosure, as detailed in the appended claims.
Before introducing the positioning method, apparatus, and storage medium of the wireless local area network device provided by the present disclosure, an application scenario related to each embodiment in the present disclosure is first introduced, where a mobile terminal is located in a coverage area of a WLAN device, the mobile terminal can acquire a signal of the WLAN device, and meanwhile, the mobile terminal can acquire a position (longitude and latitude coordinates) of the mobile terminal through built-in map software or a positioning module. The WLAN device may be a Wi-Fi (Wireless-Fidelity, chinese) device, a WAPI (Wireless LAN Authentication and Privacy Infrastructure, chinese) device, or other WLAN-enabled devices. The mobile terminal may be, for example, a mobile terminal such as a smart phone, a tablet computer, a smart tv, a smart watch, a PDA (Personal Digital Assistant, chinese), a portable computer, or the like.
Fig. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a positioning method of a wireless local area network device according to an exemplary embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the method includes the following steps:
in step 101, a plurality of target coordinates of the mobile terminal collected within a preset time period are obtained, where the target coordinates are coordinates of the mobile terminal when a signal of the WLAN device received by the mobile terminal meets a preset condition.
For example, since the WLAN device is usually located indoors, since the indoor physical environment can be complicated and there may be various wireless signal interferences, which cause various unpredictable factors, the signal strength of the WLAN device can only reflect the distance between the mobile terminal and the WLAN device in general due to multipath propagation and interference, i.e. the stronger the signal strength of the WLAN device, the closer the mobile terminal is to the WLAN device. If the position of the WLAN device is determined directly from the mapping relationship between the signal strength and the distance determined by the signal strength of the WLAN device and the radio wave propagation model, a large error may be generated in the positioning result. Therefore, the collected coordinates of the mobile terminal can be screened according to the signal strength of the WLAN device received by the mobile terminal, and a plurality of target coordinates capable of being used for positioning the WLAN device are selected. Further, since the WLAN device is movable, the coordinates of the mobile terminal collected within the preset time period can reflect the latest position of the WLAN device.
In step 102, a plurality of target coordinates are clustered by using a density-based clustering algorithm to determine a coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density.
In an example, the density-based clustering algorithm can divide a plurality of data into different clusters according to the density, and in the coverage area of the WLAN device, when the mobile terminal is densely present, the position of the WLAN device can be reflected, so that a plurality of target coordinates are used as the input of the density-based clustering algorithm, the plurality of target coordinates are clustered through the density-based clustering algorithm, one or more coordinate clusters meeting preset conditions are obtained through clustering, and the coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density is selected from the one or more coordinate clusters. Wherein, the preset condition may be: the distance between any two target coordinates in the coordinate cluster meets a certain condition, or the number of the target coordinates in the coordinate cluster meets a certain condition.
In step 103, the position of the WLAN device is determined according to the coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density.
For example, the coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density represents that the mobile terminals in the area corresponding to the target coordinate in the coordinate cluster are very densely present, and therefore, the position of the WLAN device can be reflected. For example, the coordinates of the geometric center of the coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density may be used as the position of the WLAN device, or the coordinates of the geometric center of gravity of the coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density may be used as the position of the WLAN device.
That is to say, the technical solution provided in the embodiment of the present disclosure is to determine a position where the activity of the trusted mobile terminal is dense through the steps and the method shown in steps 101-103, and use the position as the position of the WLAN device, so that the error of the position of the WLAN device can be reduced to not exceed the signal coverage of the WLAN device, for example, if the signal coverage of the WLAN device is a square circle with the signal coverage as the center being 20m, the error of the position of the WLAN device through the above method is not more than 20m at most.
In summary, according to the present disclosure, firstly, coordinates of the mobile terminal are screened according to the signal intensity of the WLAN device received by the mobile terminal, target coordinates capable of being used for positioning the WLAN device are selected, then, a plurality of target coordinates are used as input of a preset density-based clustering algorithm, the plurality of target coordinates are clustered through the density-based clustering algorithm, so as to obtain a coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density in the clustered coordinate clusters, and finally, the position information of the WLAN device is determined according to the coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density. The method and the device can reduce the dependence on the signal intensity of the WLAN equipment when the position of the WLAN equipment is positioned, enable the positioning error precision to be controllable, and improve the positioning accuracy.
Fig. 2 is a flowchart illustrating another positioning method for a wireless local area network device according to an exemplary embodiment, where as shown in fig. 2, the preset condition is a preset signal strength, and step 101 includes:
in step 1011, a plurality of position coordinates of the mobile terminal collected within a preset time period are obtained.
In step 1012, a coordinate with a signal strength of the WLAN device received by the mobile terminal greater than a preset signal strength is determined from the plurality of location coordinates of the mobile terminal, so as to obtain a plurality of target coordinates.
For example, in a preset time period, a plurality of position coordinates of the mobile terminal may be acquired according to a preset acquisition frequency, where the number of the position coordinates is a product of the preset time period and the acquisition frequency. Each of the plurality of location coordinates is filtered based on the signal strength of the WLAN device. Taking the first coordinate as any one of the plurality of position coordinates as an example, when the first coordinate is acquired, the signal intensity of the WLAN device received by the mobile terminal is greater than the preset signal intensity, the first coordinate belongs to the target coordinate, and if the signal intensity of the WLAN device received by the mobile terminal is less than or equal to the preset signal intensity, the first coordinate does not belong to the target coordinate.
In the embodiment, the position coordinates of the mobile terminal are screened by setting the preset signal intensity, so that the target coordinates capable of more accurately reflecting the position of the WLAN equipment are obtained, and the positioning accuracy of the WLAN equipment is improved.
Fig. 3 is a flowchart illustrating a positioning method for a wireless local area network device according to an exemplary embodiment, where as shown in fig. 3, the density-based clustering algorithm is a DBSCAN algorithm, and step 102 includes:
in step 1021, the target coordinates, the preset scanning radius and the preset point threshold are used as input parameters of the DBSCAN algorithm, so as to obtain at least one coordinate cluster through the DBSCAN algorithm, the scanning radius is a neighborhood threshold of any coordinate, the point threshold is a threshold of coordinate density in a target coordinate set, and the number of coordinates in a neighborhood threshold range of any coordinate in the at least one coordinate cluster all meets the point threshold.
In step 1022, a coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density is obtained from the at least one coordinate cluster.
For example, the Density-Based clustering algorithm is a DBSCAN (English: Density-Based spatial clustering of Applications with Noise, Chinese: Density-Based clustering method with Noise) algorithm, and accordingly, the input parameters of the DBSCAN algorithm are as follows: a plurality of target coordinates, a preset scanning radius and a preset point threshold. The scanning radius is a neighborhood threshold of any coordinate, and the point threshold is a threshold of coordinate density in a target coordinate set. In the coordinate cluster obtained through clustering, the number of coordinates in the neighborhood threshold range satisfying any coordinate in the coordinate cluster satisfies the point threshold, wherein the condition that the number of coordinates in the neighborhood threshold range satisfying the point threshold can be understood as that the number of coordinates in the neighborhood threshold range satisfying any coordinate in the coordinate cluster is greater than or equal to the point threshold. The output of the DBSCAN algorithm is one or more clustered coordinate clusters, and the coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density is selected from the one or more clustered coordinate clusters. And if the neighborhood threshold is 1.5 meters and the point threshold is 7, the clustered coordinate clusters all meet, wherein the point of the coordinate in the neighborhood of 1.5 meters of any target coordinate is more than or equal to 7.
In the embodiment, the DBSCAN algorithm is used for clustering the target coordinate values to obtain the coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density, so that the accuracy of selecting the coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density is improved.
Optionally, the target coordinate is a longitude and latitude coordinate of the mobile terminal, and step 1021 includes:
and carrying out ink card holder transformation on the plurality of target coordinates to obtain ink card holder projections of the plurality of target coordinates.
And taking the mercator projections of the target coordinates, the preset scanning radius and the preset point threshold value as input parameters of the DBSCAN algorithm.
Accordingly, step 103 includes:
and performing ink card tray inverse transformation on the coordinate value of the geometric center of the coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density to obtain a longitude and latitude coordinate value as the position of the WLAN equipment.
For example, the target coordinates are obtained through map software or a positioning module built in the mobile terminal, and are in the form of longitude and latitude coordinates on a spherical surface, while the euclidean distance adopted by the DBSCAN algorithm is a distance on a plane, so that to cluster a plurality of target coordinates by using the DBSCAN algorithm, the plurality of target coordinates need to be subjected to mercator transformation, and mercator projection of the plurality of target coordinates is obtained. And then, clustering the target coordinates by taking the mercator projections of the target coordinates, the preset scanning radius and the preset point threshold value as input parameters of the DBSCAN algorithm. Similarly, after the coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density is selected from the one or more coordinate clusters obtained through clustering, the coordinate of the geometric center of the coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density is the coordinate on the plane, the longitude and latitude coordinate value on the corresponding spherical surface which is obtained through the reverse transformation of the mercator is needed, and the longitude and latitude coordinate value is used as the position of the WLAN device.
In the embodiment, the position of the mobile terminal is converted from longitude and latitude coordinates on a spherical surface to coordinates on a plane by carrying out mercator transformation on a plurality of target coordinates, so that the clustering precision of the DBSCAN algorithm can be improved.
In summary, according to the present disclosure, firstly, coordinates of the mobile terminal are screened according to the signal intensity of the WLAN device received by the mobile terminal, target coordinates capable of being used for positioning the WLAN device are selected, then, a plurality of target coordinates are used as input of a preset density-based clustering algorithm, the plurality of target coordinates are clustered through the density-based clustering algorithm, so as to obtain a coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density in the clustered coordinate clusters, and finally, the position information of the WLAN device is determined according to the coordinate cluster with the highest coordinate density. The method and the device can reduce the dependence on the signal intensity of the WLAN equipment when the position of the WLAN equipment is positioned, enable the positioning error precision to be controllable, and improve the positioning accuracy.
