In an embodiment, the data calculation layer 3 is configured to analyze and process the position data information by using a positioning algorithm and a ranging algorithm.
It should be noted that the data calculation layer 3 is a key for implementing the tag position calculation, and the position calculation engine performs data cleaning on the data returned by the positioning micro base station and calculates the tag position coordinates according to different positioning algorithms.
It should be noted that, the calculation engine is deployed in the MEC, and can fully utilize the computing resources, storage capacity and processing capability provided by the MEC platform, and exert the advantages of high speed, low time delay and large connection of the 5G network, thereby improving the network utilization efficiency and the value-added value.

In one embodiment, the positioning algorithm is, but not limited to, any one of the following algorithms: time of arrival (TOA) -based location algorithms, time difference of arrival (TDOA) -based location algorithms, and angle of arrival (AOA) -based location algorithms.
It should be noted that, the three positioning algorithms have advantages and disadvantages, wherein the TDOA derives and calculates the distance between the anchor node and the tag node by using the time difference information, so that the TDOA has high positioning accuracy, and also conforms to the characteristic of high time resolution of the ultra-wideband system, and the system has low complexity and low cost; by comprehensive comparison, the TDOA location algorithm is selected as the 5G/UWB hybrid location method.
In one embodiment, the number of the positioning micro base stations is at least two; the angle-of-arrival-based positioning algorithm comprises the following steps:
(11) and selecting two positioning micro base stations from the at least two positioning micro base stations as a first base station A and a second base station B respectively.
(12) And respectively acquiring a first angle between the reference line and a connecting line of the positioning micro tag and the first base station A and a second angle between the reference line and a connecting line of the positioning micro tag and the second base station B by taking the connecting line of the first base station A and the second base station B as reference lines.
(13) And positioning the position coordinates of the positioning micro-label by using a triangulation method.
As shown in fig. 6, the position coordinates of the positioning micro-tag can be found according to the sine theorem; specifically, the calculation formula of the position coordinates of the positioning micro tag is as follows:
Figure BDA0003123481570000081
wherein the position coordinates of the positioning micro-tag are expressed as (x, y); (x)1,y1)、(x2,y2) Respectively representing the position coordinates of the two positioning micro base stations; theta1Representing the first angle; theta2Representing the second angle.
It should be noted that the AOA positioning algorithm requires an additional antenna during operation, which increases the cost of the system; because the AOA algorithm is an angle-based algorithm, the measurement requirement for the angle is high, and the AOA algorithm is easily influenced by non-line-of-sight.
As shown in fig. 7, in an embodiment, the number of the positioning micro base stations is at least three; the time-of-arrival based positioning algorithm comprises the following steps:
(21) selecting three positioning micro base stations from at least three positioning micro base stations.
(22) And acquiring the time when each positioning micro base station receives the positioning micro label sending signal.
(23) And acquiring the position coordinates of the positioning micro-label based on the positioning micro-base station and the time.
Specifically, the calculation formula of the position coordinates of the positioning micro tag is as follows:
Figure BDA0003123481570000082
as shown in fig. 8, in one embodiment, the positioning algorithm based on the time difference of arrival includes the following steps:
(31) selecting three positioning micro base stations from at least three positioning micro base stations.
(32) And acquiring the distance from each positioning micro base station to the positioning micro tag.
(33) And acquiring the position coordinates of the positioning micro-label based on the positioning micro-base station and the distance.
Specifically, the calculation formula of the position coordinates of the positioning micro tag is as follows:
Figure BDA0003123481570000091
wherein the position coordinates of the positioning micro-tag are expressed as (x, y); the position coordinate of the nth positioning micro base station is expressed as (x)n,yn);tnThe time that the positioning micro-tag transmits a signal at the time t and the nth positioning micro base station receives the signal transmitted by the positioning micro-tag is represented; c represents the speed of light; dnRepresenting the distance from the nth positioning micro base station to the positioning micro label; n is 1, 2, 3.
It should be noted that, the main idea of the TOA positioning algorithm is as follows: the central processor processes the arrival time between each base station and the target node, and each base station establishes a positioning model by using a trilateration method, aiming at obtaining the coordinate information of the moving object.
It should be noted that, in the TOA positioning algorithm, the requirement on the accuracy of the time of the arrival signal in the synchronization is relatively high, because the time needs to be multiplied by the speed of light c, and therefore, the time error multiplied by the speed of light no matter how small the time error is, becomes a large error, and has a serious influence on the accuracy of indoor positioning.
It should be noted that the main ideas of the TDOA location algorithm are as follows: the time difference measured by a group of base stations can establish a pair of hyperbolas, the focus of the hyperbolas is two base stations, and the moving object is a certain point on the hyperbolas; the TDOA algorithm is different from the TOA algorithm in that the distance can be measured by the arrival time difference of 2 signals with different propagation speeds or the arrival time difference of the same signal at different nodes; the same is true in that trilateration is also used.
It should be noted that a hyperbolic positioning model is finally displayed in the TDOA positioning algorithm, and the solution obtained by the model is the position coordinates of the positioning micro-tag, but the model is a nonlinear equation set; the solving process of the nonlinear equation set is difficult, and the current solving algorithm mainly comprises the following steps: the Fang algorithm, the Chan algorithm, the Friedlander algorithm, the Taylor algorithm, and the like.
Furthermore, the positioning method of the invention is to finish distance estimation by a hardware module, and precise distance estimation is a premise for realizing a high-precision indoor positioning system, therefore, the invention combines the characteristics of UWB indoor positioning technology and adopts a distance estimation method based on signal time of flight (TOF).
In an embodiment, the Ranging algorithm adopts a Ranging method based on signal flight time, the Ranging method based on signal flight time is implemented in a Double-Sided Two-Way Ranging (DS-TWR), that is, multiple polling and response communication are required between a positioning base station and a tag, and the implementation process is as shown in fig. 9.
In FIG. 9, T ispollingThe time from sending a polling signal to device B to receiving a response signal from device B for device a; t isanswerThe time from the time when the device B receives the polling signal sent by the device A to the time when the device B sends a response signal to the device A; t isflightWhich is the transmission time of a signal, can be expressed by the following formula:
Tflight=1/2(Tpolling-Tanswer)。
