Description

Positioning method and system based on signal quality control and characteristic fingerprint enhancement
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of indoor positioning, in particular to a positioning method and a positioning system based on signal quality control and characteristic fingerprint enhancement.
Background
With the progress of science and technology and the development of economy, the indoor positioning technology is more and more widely concerned. The indoor positioning technology is one of core technologies applied to everything interconnection, artificial intelligence and future ultra-intelligence (robots and human beings), and plays a great role in public safety services (such as emergency medical treatment, emergency positioning and emergency alarm service), intelligent warehousing, precise marketing, mobile health, virtual reality games, human social interaction and the like.
In an indoor environment, GNSS (global navigation satellite system) signals cannot be effectively received and used due to a severe multipath phenomenon, providing a location service to a user. The existing indoor positioning technology mostly uses various opportunity signals or multisource sensor information, and obtains the position information of indoor users by different methods. The existing indoor positioning technology based on wireless signals mainly comprises two methods of geometric intersection and fingerprint positioning:
(1) in the geometric intersection indoor positioning technology based on single distance measurement or angle measurement, stable distance and angle estimation results are difficult to obtain due to serious multipath phenomena caused by indoor environment and daily activities of human beings, and the precision and stability of an indoor positioning system are seriously influenced. Meanwhile, because more than three line-of-sight signals are difficult to receive simultaneously in an indoor environment, the deployment cost and the later maintenance cost of the positioning system are increased by additionally deploying too many base stations, and the popularization and the application of the technology are hindered.
(2) The indoor positioning technology based on the signal fingerprint is the most widely applied indoor positioning method at present because the influence of the multipath phenomenon does not need to be considered and the positioning precision is higher in a specific scene. In particular, positioning technologies based on signal CSI fingerprints have attracted much attention in recent years due to their obvious and relatively stable fingerprint characteristics. However, positioning techniques based on signal CSI fingerprints still face many challenges. First, fingerprint positioning is a positioning method that relies on matching of fingerprint information associated with a location in an indoor environment to achieve a positioning effect. When the indoor environment topology changes and the crowd activity changes, the fingerprint characteristics of the signals are affected. Therefore, when the fingerprint positioning system is used in a complicated indoor environment of a person, the change of the fingerprint characteristics of the indoor signal can cause a serious mismatching phenomenon of the positioning system, and the precision and the stability of the indoor positioning system are influenced. Secondly, the fingerprint positioning technology still has a certain demand for the number of indoor base stations. In general, the more base station signals that can be received, the more fingerprint features that can be acquired, and the higher the accuracy of the positioning system. How to realize the high-precision positioning effect by means of a small number of base station signals in an indoor environment is also a great challenge of fingerprint positioning.
In summary, the existing indoor positioning system is affected by the indoor environment, the crowd activity and the limitation of the number of base stations, so that the accuracy and stability of the system are difficult to guarantee, and a stable high-accuracy position service is provided for users. How to solve the problem is a hotspot of scientific research at present and is also a difficult point in industrial application. A perfect signal quality evaluation system can effectively screen high-quality data and improve the precision and stability of the indoor positioning system.
Aiming at the research difficulty and pain point, the technology provides a distance measurement and positioning method and system based on signal quality evaluation, and the accuracy and stability of indoor positioning are respectively improved through the following three aspects:
(1) by evaluating the quality of the received signal, the signals seriously affected by multipath fading and scattering are filtered, and the received signal with high signal-to-noise ratio is extracted. The signal with high signal-to-noise ratio is used for extracting the power of the first path, so that the reliability of the indoor positioning system is improved;
(2) the fingerprint positioning database is constructed based on the combination of signal quality control and time domain and frequency domain characteristics of signals, so that the fingerprint characteristic dimension and accuracy in the database are improved, and a high-precision indoor positioning effect is realized;
(3) based on signal quality control, the accuracy of fingerprint positioning is improved to a certain extent by using the ranging information of the line-of-sight signal, the condition of mismatching of fingerprint positioning is restrained, and the stability of the positioning method is improved.

Disclosure of Invention
The main problems of the prior art are as follows:
in the related technical scheme aiming at the fingerprint positioning technology, although some indoor positioning methods based on signal states are used, the stability or diversity of fingerprint characteristics in a fingerprint database is improved by methods such as a filtering algorithm, multiple antennas or multiple frequencies, and the like, and the precision of fingerprint positioning can be improved to a certain extent. However, due to the factors of the fingerprint positioning technology, the stability of the fingerprint positioning system in a complicated and varied indoor environment can not be guaranteed. According to the scheme, the accuracy of the data in the fingerprint database is improved through a signal quality control method. Meanwhile, the time-frequency characteristics are combined to construct a fingerprint database, so that the dimensionality of the fingerprint characteristics in the database is improved, and the fingerprint positioning matching precision can be effectively improved. A signal quality control based sight distance signal ranging enhanced fingerprint positioning method measures the distance between a base station and a user under the condition of sight distance to carry out real-time constraint on a fingerprint positioning result. The method not only can effectively improve the precision of the fingerprint positioning method, but also can effectively improve the stability of fingerprint positioning in a complex scene of personnel.
At present, according to the related technical scheme of the geometric intersection positioning technology, the precision of the indoor positioning system can be improved through methods such as multi-antenna measurement or error correction. However, these methods add additional cost to the system and make it difficult to make it widely applicable. The trilateral positioning method needs a plurality of sight distance signals to be intersected and positioned, and serious non-sight distance signals and multipath phenomena can be generated due to the interference of daily activities of human beings, so that the precision and the stability of the system are influenced. The scheme is an original fingerprint positioning method enhanced by the line-of-sight signal ranging of quality control. The method is based on a fingerprint positioning technology, and establishes a high-precision stable fingerprint characteristic database by combining signal time-frequency characteristics, so that enough fingerprint data can be collected for accurate matching positioning even if only one base station exists in an indoor scene. Meanwhile, the ranging precision and stability of the wireless signals can be improved through a ranging scheme of quality control, and when the line-of-sight signals can be received, the motion state of the user is restrained by measuring the distance between the user and the base station, so that the precision and stability of fingerprint positioning are enhanced.

Through experimental verification, the fluctuation range of the positioning errors of the 16 test positions is controlled within 0.43 meter, as shown in fig. 1 (b).
An embodiment provides a positioning method based on signal quality control and feature fingerprint enhancement, a general flow is shown in fig. 2, and the method includes the following steps:
step 1: feature extraction based on signal quality control
In the traditional RSSI fingerprint positioning, only the data layer surface is used for denoising and filtering signals, the quality control is carried out on the signal layer surface by the technology, and the frequency domain CSI information and the time domain PDP information are extracted. The method sub-steps comprise:
(1) and (3) signal quality evaluation:
demodulating and channel estimating the wireless signal acquired by the receiver which supports the acquisition of the synchronous signal to obtain an estimation vector H of CSI:
Figure BDA0003112310170000071
wherein Y is a receiver received data vector, X is a pilot vector, and Hi=|Hi|exp{j∠Hi},|HiI and HiRespectively, the amplitude and phase of the ith subcarrier, j represents the imaginary part of the complex number, and exp { } is an exponential function.
Based on the idea of performing signal quality control on the amplitude of H, SNR is introduced into a signal quality evaluation index for the first time, which is an important index for measuring the influence degree of noise on a signal and can truly reflect the fading condition of each subcarrier of a channel, and the specific calculation method is as follows:
Figure BDA0003112310170000072
wherein, PsTo receive signal power, PnIs the noise power.
The next sub-step will filter H using SNR as an evaluation index.
(2) Signal quality control:
and detecting and filtering abnormal data values according to the evaluation result, and further filtering the CSI. In this embodiment, the sequence number of the position where the abnormal value of the current data is located is deleted and recorded by using a 3-Sigma rule (laiida criterion), the sequence number data corresponding to the original CSI vector H is deleted, and a Hampel filtering method is adopted to perform denoising smoothing. The specific process comprises the following steps:
3-Sigma rule detection of deletion outliers: the index number of the position where the SNR time series abnormal value of each subcarrier is located is determined according to the 3-Sigma rule (mean μ and 3 times standard deviation σ threshold), and the index number is used to correspondingly delete the data on each subcarrier time series of the original CSI, which is shown in fig. 3.
Hampel filtering: and (4) removing the CSI data after the abnormal value is removed by utilizing the step (i), and denoising and smoothing the time series data on each subcarrier of the CSI by adopting a Hampel filtering algorithm.
And comparing amplitudes and standard deviations of the sub-carriers of the CSI before and after signal quality control. This step effectively reduces the fluctuation of the original signal data, obtains a truer and more stable signal, and improves the stability by about 1.2 times, as shown in fig. 4.
(3) Extracting frequency domain information:
the CSI amplitude is calculated from the filtering result of the substep (2), and the frequency domain CSI amplitude characteristics before and after signal quality control are as shown in fig. 5.

Step 2: fingerprint establishment based on time domain and frequency domain joint characteristics
In order to improve the positioning accuracy, the technology expands the single-dimensional features of the traditional fingerprint positioning to multi-dimensional features, and in the step, the frequency domain CSI information and the time domain PDP information extracted in the step 1 are combined to construct a multi-dimensional feature offline position fingerprint database, as shown in FIG. 7. The method comprises the following specific substeps:
(1) and (3) feature normalization processing:
because the frequency domain CSI characteristic information and the time domain PDP characteristic information have different dimensions, the frequency domain CSI characteristic information and the time domain PDP characteristic information of each subcarrier at the same position are respectively subjected to normalization processing before combination, and a max-min normalization method is adopted to perform linear transformation on original data, so that a result value is mapped between 0 and 1. The transfer function is as follows:
Figure BDA0003112310170000081
wherein x is the original data, min is the minimum value of the characteristic vector, max is the maximum value of the characteristic vector, x*Is normalized data.
(2) And (3) combining the features to construct a fingerprint library:
combining the two features normalized in the substep (1), and adding time domain PDP information (assuming dimension 5) to the frequency domain CSI information (assuming dimension 60) by using a 1:1 weight, a 1 × 65 fingerprint feature vector can be constructed, as shown in fig. 7, assuming that there are N fingerprints at positions in the position fingerprint library:
location 1 fingerprint is denoted as (CSI)01,CSI02,…CSI60,PDP01,PDP02,…PDP05)1…, fingerprint of position N is denoted as (CSI)01,CSI02,…CSI60,PDP01,PDP02,…PDP05)N. Typically, the number of samples collected at the kth position is MkThen the fingerprint information at the k-th position is MkX 65. Thus, in comparison with the conventional single signature fingerprint (RSSI)1,…,(RSSI)NCompared with the prior art, the effect is much better.
And step 3: robust fingerprint positioning based on ranging enhancement
The method comprises the steps of adding distance constraint on the basis of traditional fingerprint positioning, acquiring an unknown position X by a receiver, performing signal quality control, obtaining an online fingerprint information vector combining a time domain PDP and a frequency domain CSI in the same combined characteristic mode as the steps 1 and 2, and recording the online characteristic vector at the ith moment of the unknown position X as the online characteristic vector

The method comprises the following specific substeps:
(1) extracting energy of a first path:
