Description

Single-station positioning method combining UWB ranging and interferometer direction finding and antenna array
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of microwave antennas, in particular to a positioning method combining ultra-wideband pulse ranging and interferometer direction finding, and a corresponding single-station positioning antenna array with good phase difference single-valued property.
Background
With the popularization of 5G and the Internet of things, all industries develop towards informatization and intellectualization, and position-based services become more and more common and bring huge requirements for indoor positioning.
Currently, common indoor positioning technologies include WiFi, bluetooth, ultra Wideband (UWB), etc., but all have different drawbacks. Technologies such as WiFi and Bluetooth are high in maturity and low in cost, but the positioning accuracy is only 3m-10m, and the requirement for indoor high-accuracy positioning cannot be met. The UWB technology has the characteristics of strong multi-path resolution capability and high positioning precision, the theoretical ranging precision can reach centimeter or even sub-centimeter level, and the requirement of indoor high-precision positioning can be met. However, a single UWB site can only achieve one-dimensional high-precision ranging, UWB positioning needs to be supported by more than 3 base stations, cost is high, and when the number of rooms is large, the number of base stations required by the UWB site is multiplied by the number of rooms. Meanwhile, a multi-base station positioning system needs a high-precision clock synchronization requirement, and in order to ensure accurate clock synchronization among all base stations, the main method adopted at present is through wired connection, which brings great difficulty to system installation and deployment. The array antenna based on the interferometer direction finding method can realize direction finding only by single equipment, dependence on an installation environment can be reduced, and installation and deployment cost is reduced. At present, the interferometer direction-finding antenna array mainly adopts the basic antenna forms of monopole antennas, patch antennas and the like in the antenna form, and the array form comprises linear arrays, circular arrays and the like. The precision of the direction finding of the interferometer mainly depends on the phase discrimination precision, and in order to improve the performance of the direction finding of the interferometer, the current research is mainly developed from an algorithm level, and methods for knowing phase difference ambiguity, channel amplitude and phase correction, data processing and the like are provided. However, the improvement of the direction-finding positioning accuracy from the level of algorithm, software and the like is limited, and the maximum improvement limit is determined by the accuracy level which can be achieved by the positioning antenna hardware. In order to improve the performance of the ambiguity resolution algorithm, a small amount of research is carried out on the antenna array arrangement aspect, and the arrangement space of the antenna array is optimized mainly by adopting a correlation coefficient so as to improve the ambiguity resolution capability of the interferometer direction-finding antenna array. However, the existing researches do not fundamentally solve the problem of phase difference single value of the direction-finding antenna array of the interferometer, and once multiple values appear during phase measurement, direction-finding blurring can be caused.
Therefore, based on the current situation, the current general indoor positioning technology is difficult to meet the market demands of high technical maturity and low cost in terms of precision and cost.

And the indoor single-station high-precision positioning is realized by combining angle measurement information obtained by an array consisting of three or more antennas.

Detailed Description
The invention is further described with reference to the following figures and detailed description.
In order to facilitate an understanding of the invention, reference will now be made in detail to two specific embodiments.
In the antenna structures shown in fig. 1-3 and 8-10, the indoor single-station positioning antenna array disclosed by the invention comprises a dielectric substrate 3, a metal grounding plate 2, three metal radiating rods 1 and three SMA coaxial connectors 4;
the metal grounding plate 2 is positioned on the dielectric substrate 3, the SMA coaxial connectors 4 are positioned below the dielectric substrate 3, and the three metal radiant bars 1 are positioned on the metal grounding plate 2, penetrate through the metal grounding plate 2 and the dielectric substrate 3 and are respectively connected with the three SMA coaxial connectors 4;
the three SMA coaxial connectors 4 and the metal radiation rod 1 form three monopole antennas which are the main structure of the single station positioning antenna array for receiving and transmitting signals, the monopole antennas are arranged in a rotational symmetry mode, and the positions of the monopole antennas form an equilateral triangle.
The design concept and mode of the indoor single-station positioning antenna array disclosed by the invention are further described as follows:
in the three-element antenna array according to the present invention, the distance between the three antenna elements (hereinafter referred to as antenna element 0, antenna element 1 and antenna element 2) and the center of the antenna array is r, and the azimuth angle at which a signal is incident is r
Figure BDA0003199573500000043
The pitch angle is alpha, the phase difference between the signal transmitted to the center of the antenna array and the antenna unit 0, the antenna unit 1 and the antenna unit 2 is theta c0 、θ c1 、θ c2
The azimuth angle and the pitch angle of the signal are obtained by the following formula:
Figure BDA0003199573500000041
Figure BDA0003199573500000042
therefore, theoretically, by measuring the phase difference between the unit antennas, the azimuth angle and the pitch angle of the signal can be determined by using a three-channel interferometer.
However, in the actual operation process, due to the influence of mutual coupling and shielding between the antenna units, the direct use of the above formula cannot be calculated due to the existence of multiple values of phase difference.
In order to realize phase difference single value performance of the antenna array disclosed by the invention, the antenna array disclosed by the invention is subjected to parameter design around the characteristic. The method is specifically determined by the following steps:
first, for any 2 omnidirectional receiving antenna units in the present invention, let its spacing be d and signal incident angle be θ i The wavelength of the signal is lambda, and the phase difference of the signal reaching 2 antennas is theta c Then, there are:
Figure BDA0003199573500000051
in the formula, N is a natural number, and only the phase difference value theta in the main value interval can be obtained during phase measurement c And the integer N cannot be determined, so for a value theta c With multiple angles of incidence theta i Correspondingly, to ensure that the phase difference is unity, the theta is limited c Taking values in the main value interval, according to the above thought, the distance d between any 2 antenna units is designed to be smaller than half wavelength of the incident signal. Meanwhile, when the distance is too small, the coupling between the antenna array units is increased, and strong mutual coupling can bring about the distortion of a phase directional diagram and also cause multiple values. Therefore, the invention sets the distance between the antenna units to be about one third of the wavelength of the incident signal after calculation and practical verification are carried out by comprehensively considering the limit of the interferometer principle and the influence of antenna mutual coupling.
Meanwhile, the invention discovers that the directional diagrams of the units in the antenna array are distorted under the influence of the surrounding units and the metal grounding plate, and in order to ensure the consistency of the directional diagrams of the units in the array, the invention designs that the arrangement of the antenna and the grounding plate structure both adopt a rotational symmetry structure. Meanwhile, in order to ensure that the phase pattern of the antenna unit can be changed along with the pitching angle monotonously, the size of the grounding plate of the antenna unit is calculated and analyzed in the array, and the side length of the grounding plate is determined to be about 0.65 times of the wavelength. The metal radiating rod of the antenna gives priority to the matching characteristics of each unit, and the height of the antenna is reduced as much as possible, and is determined to be about 0.23 times of the wavelength.

The size of the antenna array is as shown in fig. 11 and 12, a single-station positioning antenna working at 4GHz is manufactured, a slot is formed at the hexagonal intersection of the grounding plate, and the width G of the slot is 3mm. The center-to-center distance D1 of the three monopole antennas is 25mm, the side length W1 of the hexagonal grounding plate of the antenna is 34mm, the height H1 of the metal radiation rod is 16.8mm, and the radius R1 of the dielectric substrate is 48.43mm.
