Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of wireless positioning, and particularly relates to a wireless positioning method, a wireless positioning system, a wireless positioning medium and an intelligent terminal for 5G downlink signals.
Background
At present, the construction of a 5G base station in the era of intelligent economy is a key task of the construction of national novel infrastructures, and with the rapid development of the 5G technology and the large-scale indoor and outdoor arrangement of the 5G base station, the 5G serving as a future mainstream communication technology will become an important signal source of indoor and outdoor spaces, and has wide application scenes and great application potential. Due to the fact that key technologies such as a large-scale antenna array, an ultra-dense network and a novel multi-address are introduced into the 5G, multi-antenna, large-bandwidth and low-delay communication is achieved, and wireless positioning research and analysis are facilitated.
In the aspect of positioning research, positioning cannot be achieved in indoor and urban canyon regions due to the fact that GNSS is difficult to reach, so technologies for conducting indoor positioning research by utilizing wireless communication signals such as WIFI, bluetooth and ultra wide band have been developed, but the signal sources cannot achieve large-area coverage like GNSS, and application is limited. Compared with the prior art, the 5G can realize large-scale coverage, effectively enlarge the signal coverage area and have signal characteristics favorable for wireless positioning. Therefore, the 5G signal can be used for improving the positioning precision and the application universality.
In addition, the positioning based on the 5G downlink signal is the key for realizing the 5G indoor and outdoor positioning research of the consumer level, and the larger bandwidth of the downlink signal and the positioning based on the terminal have flexible and wide application scenes, such as industrial manufacturing, intelligent transportation, logistics storage, retail sale, health care and the like. Currently, there are few studies on positioning based on 5G downlink signals.
The existing positioning method mainly comprises GNSS positioning and indoor wireless signal positioning (WIFI, Bluetooth, ultra wide band and the like). The GNSS signals are weak and difficult to reach in complex spaces such as urban canyons, indoor spaces, underground spaces and the like, and thus the positioning requirements in sheltered spaces such as indoor spaces and the like are difficult to meet. Therefore, indoor wireless signal positioning technology taking WIFI, Bluetooth and ultra wide band as mainstream has been rapidly developed. The positioning technology based on WIFI, Bluetooth and ultra wide band needs additional base stations to be arranged, so that large-scale application is difficult to form, wide coverage of indoor and outdoor positioning cannot be achieved, and popularization are difficult to achieve.
Regarding the research of 5G NR positioning, the research is very little at present, the existing base station side positioning based on uplink signals is mainly performed, and the base station side positioning only enables equipment end enterprises to obtain complete information, so that the open research and wide application are difficult to realize.
Through the above analysis, the problems and defects of the prior art are as follows:
(1) the existing GNSS positioning method is weak in signal and difficult to reach in complex spaces such as urban canyons, indoor spaces and underground spaces, and is difficult to meet the positioning requirement in sheltered spaces such as indoor spaces.
(2) The positioning technology based on WIFI, Bluetooth and ultra wide band is mainly used for indoor positioning, base stations need to be additionally arranged, the acting distance is short, and the requirement of large-scale wide-coverage indoor and outdoor seamless positioning is difficult to meet.
(3) In the 5G NR positioning, the base station side positioning based on the uplink signal requires a user to transmit a special positioning signal, occupies communication resources, is easy to leak position information, is limited in the number of accessed users, is limited in practical application, and is difficult to popularize commercially in a large scale; and the bandwidth of the downlink signal of the 5G NR system is far larger than that of the uplink signal, so that the high-precision positioning is facilitated.
The difficulty in solving the above problems and defects is:
the difficulty is that the wireless signal is seriously interfered by multipath, and the precision of positioning and navigation is seriously influenced. How to effectively utilize the existing format and characteristics of a 5G downlink signal in the existing 5G signal structure and standard, eliminate multipath interference, obtain accurate signal arrival time to carry out ranging estimation and angle estimation, realize the high-precision positioning function of an intelligent terminal side based on the 5G NR downlink signal, and increase the high added value service of the intelligent terminal based on position information.
The significance of solving the problems and the defects is as follows:
the high-precision positioning method based on the 5G NR downlink signal expands the wireless positioning function of the 5G receiving module and provides position service for the Internet of things and mass users. Because the downlink signal of 5G NR is not restricted by base station equipment manufacturers, the solution can be provided for extensive intelligent terminal manufacturers of the Internet of things, and because the 5G base station is generally arranged indoors and outdoors as public infrastructure, the seamless position service indoors and outdoors can be provided, therefore, the intelligent terminal side positioning based on the downlink signal of 5G NR has important significance and huge market application potential.
