Specific embodiment
The present invention will be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
Fig. 1 is overall flow figure of the invention, includes 8 steps.
In step 1, therefore, to assure that it reads in the base station number that data include and is more than or equal to 4, it is otherwise very little containing information, it is subsequent Process of solution will be unable to carry out.The form of the TDOA data of reading is data=(di1, di2, di3 ..., din), and dij expression is worked as For preceding coordinate to be asked to the distance of master base station and the difference of the distance to base station j, n indicates base station number, the step require n >=4.
In step 2, needs to delete the obvious base station bigger than normal of some errors, influence subsequent solution to avoid these abnormal datas Step is calculated, the quality of data is promoted.Processing method be take the nearest preferable historical data of moment quality first, and by the data with Current TDOA data compare, and calculate the deviation delta dij on each component.Assuming that preset error threshold be t, then when When Δ dij > t, the component is deleted from TDOA data.Threshold value t is usually set to twice of target moving distance, wherein it is mobile away from From can be estimated according to target movement speed and time.For example movement speed is set as 1m/s, current time and last moment Time difference be 0.2s, then t is set as 0.4m.In order to avoid the non-abnormal data of deletion, increase the robustness of positioning system, Threshold value t can suitably be expanded under above-mentioned calculation.
In step 3, the number of base station in data is first determined whether, because step 2 may will be deleted several errors in data Component corresponding to larger base station.If remaining base station number is less than 4, it is meant that subsequent resolving can not be carried out, need to return to step Rapid 1, next data is read, Chan-Taylor resolving is otherwise carried out.The flow chart of this solution process is shown in Fig. 2, and it includes such as Lower step:
Step 3-1 carries out rough estimate to coordinate with the Chan algorithm for introducing height.TDOA data are done simply first Transformation makes master base station become the base station of serial number 1, and the transformation is convenient only for subsequent expression, will not change changing coordinates and arrive The difference of each base station distance does not influence calculated result.Transformed data mode are as follows:
Data_=(d12, d13, d14 ..., d1n),
Wherein difference of d1j (2≤j≤n) the expression changing coordinates to distance between master base station and base station j.Assuming that base station Coordinate be (x1, y1, z1), (x2, y2, z2) ..., (xn, yn, zn), wherein (xi, yi, zi) indicates that the three-dimensional of base station i is sat It marks, 1≤i≤n, known to the coordinate.The fixed height of the object to be positioned introduced is h, then improved Chan algorithm can be with It indicates are as follows:
Ki=xi^2+yi^2+ (zi-h) ^2,
E=0.5* [d12^2+K1-K2;d13^2+K1-K3;…;D1n^2+K1-Kn],
Xij=xi-xj,
Yij=yi-yj,
G=[- x21 ,-y21, d12;-x31,-y31,d13;…;- xn1 ,-yn1, d1n],
Z_=inv (GT*inv(Q)*G)*GT* inv (Q) * E,
Ri=sqrt ((xi-Z_ (1)) ^2+ (yi-Z_ (2)) ^2+ (zi-h) ^2),
D=diag { r2, r3 ..., rn },
X=D*Q*D,
Z=inv (GT*inv(X)*G)*GT* inv (X) * E,
Above-mentioned formula acquires Z=(x, y, r), wherein (x, y) i.e. required coordinate estimated value, r is the coordinate to master base station Distance.The process has only carried out the first time weighted least square in Chan algorithm, can also using x, y and r it Between relationship do second of weighted least square, but the test under true environment shows in most cases for the first time It is accurate enough to estimate resulting result, then carries out second of estimation and not only will increase calculation amount, in some instances it may even be possible to make under precision Drop, therefore the step requires only to carry out a least-squares estimation.
The result that step 3-1 is obtained is iterated as the substitution of the initial value of Talor sequence method, obtains by step 3-2 More accurate coordinate.The step for equally introduce fixed height information, it is assumed that be highly h, initial value be (x0, y0), then improve Taylor sequence method afterwards can indicate are as follows:
Ri=sqrt ((xi-x0) ^2+ (yi-y0) ^2+ (zi-h) ^2),
Rij=Ri-Rj,
H=[R21- (R2-R1);R31-(R3-R1);…;Rn1- (Rn-R1)],
Pi=(xi-x0)/Ri,
Qi=(yi-y0)/Ri,
M=[p1-p2, q1-q2;p1-p3,q1-q3;…;P1-pn, q1-qn],
[Δ x, Δ y]=inv (MT*inv(Q)*M)*MT* inv (Q) * H,
Wherein Q is identical with step 1, is the covariance matrix of error;(Δ x, Δ y) are the seats found out in epicycle iteration Departure is marked, if threshold parameter is t, t is usually set to 1cm, restrains if Δ x+ Δ y < t, otherwise uses (x0+ Δ x, y0+ Δ Y) replace (x0, y0), repeat the above process, until convergence or the number of iterations reach the pre-set upper limit.If convergence, will be final Calculated result is put into array P;If Taylor sequence method does not still restrain the number of iterations after reaching the upper limit, 3- is gone to step 3.Test under true environment shows that in the higher situation of the quality of data, Taylor sequence method generally only needs to change for 1 to 2 times In generation, can restrain.
Step 3-3 is successfully resolved and is passed through with the last time if the Taylor iteration in step 3-2 is not restrained The result of screening substitutes into Taylor sequence method and is iterated as initial value, and the convergence judgement of iteration is identical as step 3-2, If convergence, is put into P for result, otherwise it is assumed that resolving failure.In the case where the quality of data is poor, which is able to ascend A possibility that Taylor sequence method restrains, increases the success rate of resolving.
In step 4, it is known that the form of initial data be data=(di1, di2, di3 ..., din), it using base station i as Master base station to replace base station i to become master base station with base station j, that is, calculates (dj1, dj2 ..., djn), can be by:
Djk=dj-dk=(di-dk)-(di-dj)=dik-dij,
Obtaining the replacement base station j is the data after master base station:
Data '=(di1-dij, di2-dij ..., din-dij),
Replacement master base station can effectively expand original TDOA data, and in the case where there is n base station, a TDOA data can To be converted into n item, and successively resolved with the Chan-Taylor method in step 3, increase calculation result quantity and can By property.The main purpose of the step is to eliminate accidental error, and handles the case where original master base station is blocked.
In step 5, by replacement base station and after resolving, the number of the point in array P is likely larger than 1 (be up to n), Need to select positioning result of the point the most suitable as this TDOA data.Selection method is reversely to be calculated by coordinate in P They answer corresponding TDOA data out, and calculate these and calculate the flat of the Euclidean distance between data and this TDOA data Side, takes element in the wherein corresponding P of minimum value to be put into array T as final positioning result.Selection needs to empty number after completing Group P, to store the calculation result of next TDOA data.
In step 6, the window size of average filter is set as span, it is assumed that element number is k in T, then filtering strategies are As k < span, the average value of all elements in T is taken as a result, otherwise taking the average value of span nearest element.Window Bigger, smooth effect is more obvious, but can also lose more information simultaneously.
In step 7, the size of prediction window is set as span, it is assumed that the element number in F is k, then the prediction side of coordinate Method is the average speed for calculating nearest a period of time first, is the average speed between nearest k point as k<span, work as k>= It is the average speed between nearest span point when span, then with the speed multiplied by a upper point to the time between the moment Interval, the moving distance predicted.The distance is intercepted on the extended line of nearest two lines, what is obtained is prediction Coordinate.
In step 8, this TDOA data have been disposed, and final positioning result is the last one coordinate in T, filtering knot Fruit is the last one coordinate in F, and F has smoother characteristic relative to T, can be used for showing real-time track.It needs to read at this time A TDOA data are removed, the information of subsequent time is handled, to form continuous path.
Embodiment
In order to verify the validity of proposition method, place is disposed in actual environment and is tested.Test site is one There is one block of glass in the room of 5m*7m or so, the room upper left corner, and neighbouring signal can occur significantly to reflect.Place surrounding is total to portion 8 base stations are affixed one's name to, the height of base station is probably in 3m or so.Tester walks several weeks along edge in the venue, motion profile Close to rectangle.This TDOA data sequence acquired is calculated in the present invention as test data, wherein each step Realization and parameter detail it is as follows:
Step 1, the TDOA data containing 4 and the above base station are read;
Step 2, the biggish base station of error is removed according to historical data, the threshold value t of error is set as 1m in the step;
Step 3, Chan-Taylor resolving is carried out, the fixed height h in Chan algorithm and Taylor sequence method is set as It is 100 that 2m (fixed height of object to be positioned), error co-variance matrix Q, which are disposed as diagonal line, pair that remaining element is 500 Claim matrix.For judging that convergent threshold value t is set as 1cm in Taylor sequence method, the iteration upper limit is set as 25.
Step 4, it replaces master base station and repeats step 3;
Step 5, it if P is not sky, therefrom selects most suitable point and empties array P;
Step 6, if joined new point in T, average filter is carried out, the window size span of filtering is set as 25;
Step 7, if that new point is not added in T, changing coordinates are carried out in advance using time and speed according to the data in F It surveys, the window size span of prediction is set as 5;
Step 8, which is disposed, and returns to step 1, reads next data.
