Description

Pedestrian track reckoning auxiliary UWB positioning method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of indoor positioning, in particular to a positioning method of pedestrian dead reckoning auxiliary UWB.
Background
Location services are services based on obtaining accurate locations, which mainly include both outdoor and indoor locations. The global positioning and navigation system (global navigation satellite system, GNSS) mainly comprises a GPS in the United states, a Glonass in Russian, a Galileo in Europe and a Beidou satellite navigation system in China, wherein the GPS is taken as a main outdoor positioning and navigation technology which is very wide in the civil field, covers the aspects of social life and becomes an indispensable important technology in daily life of people. In recent years, beidou satellite navigation systems are continuously developed and are increasingly widely applied. Research shows that 80% of people are in indoor environment, GNSS positioning can not extend to indoor environment due to attenuation of electromagnetic wave signals, indoor location service has huge commercial potential and wide application prospect, such as market, airport, exhibition hall, underground engineering and other indoor environment requirements, and compared with outdoor positioning, the indoor environment space and complexity face a small challenge to indoor positioning technology. Through many years of research and development, various indoor positioning technical schemes such as Bluetooth, wi-Fi, zigBee, inertial navigation, UWB and the like are proposed and applied, and the positioning accuracy, cost investment and use scene of each positioning mode are different.
UWB positioning is a kind of very high precision in the indoor positioning technology at present, UWB signal can modulate to UWB work frequency band through frequency conversion modes such as differentiation or mixing through narrow pulse (such as secondary Gaussian pulse) that transmission time is very short (such as 2 ns), has advantages such as high spectral range, high time resolution, anti multipath performance are strong. The method is characterized in that the coordinates of a mobile node are calculated by measuring the signal arrival Time between the mobile node and the base station node and converting the signal arrival Time into the distance, and using TOA (Time of arrival) or TDOA (Time Difference 0 fArrival) algorithm, the UWB positioning system needs to be provided with a sufficient number (at least three) of base station nodes (UWB transceivers installed at fixed positions), the system installation and operation cost is high, the system is easily influenced by non-line-of-sight (not line of sight, NLOS) factors, and when necessary base station node data is absent, the positioning system falls into paralysis, and the expansibility of the UWB positioning system is limited.
The indoor positioning mode based on the inertia measurement element refers to the estimation of the PDR (Pedestrian Dead Reckoning, PDR) of the pedestrian dead reckoning, and the basic principle is that the acceleration and angular velocity data in the pedestrian movement process are measured in real time through the inertia sensors such as the accelerometer, the gyroscope and the magnetometer which are integrated based on the MEMS technology, and the position coordinates in the movement process are estimated through the estimation of the step frequency, the step length and the direction by the algorithm. PDR is a completely autonomous positioning mode, does not need to arrange infrastructure, and has low positioning cost, but accumulated errors of sensor drift exist, short-term precision is high, and errors are increased as time passes.
In the research of the existing fusion positioning algorithm, aiming at the fusion positioning of PDR and UWB, a complete UWB positioning system is mainly used for correcting the positioning error of the PDR, when the UWB positioning system fails, the PDR is used for positioning independently, the positioning error can be accumulated gradually, and the combined positioning is meaningless.
In view of the foregoing, a positioning method of pedestrian dead reckoning assisted UWB is urgently needed to solve the problems in the prior art.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described more fully hereinafter in order to facilitate an understanding of the present invention, and preferred embodiments of the present invention are set forth.

Step S5: and resampling the particles, and resolving the position coordinates of the mobile module by using the particle set after resampling the particles.
Particle resampling, also known as particle importance sampling, is a process for modifying the distribution of particles in a state space. In the new particle set, the larger the particle weight is, the closer the part of particles are to the real position of the mobile module, the resampling is carried out on the particles, the particles with low weight are removed, the particles with high weight are added, but the total number of the particles is kept unchanged, so that the particle set is closer to the real position.
Each particle has coordinates, and the estimated value of the coordinates of the mobile module can be obtained after solving the state vectors of all the particles, so that the positioning is completed, specifically, in step S5, the position coordinates of the mobile module are solved by using the weighted average value of the system state vectors of all the particles, where the weighted average value is:

experimental comparison:
experiment setting: referring to fig. 4, two UWB base station nodes are installed C, D in an indoor environment, the coordinates of which are known. The experimenter holds the mobile module to walk along the planned real path GD from the starting Point SP (Start Point) at the right lower corner in the figure to carry out a positioning experiment, and the sight between the mobile module and two UWB base station nodes is kept to be free from shielding in the experimental process.
Referring to fig. 4, tua-PDR represents a positioning track of the positioning method of the present embodiment, and it can be seen that the positioning method of the present embodiment better fits the real path GD; the nonL-LS represents the positioning trace of the nonlinear least squares method (i.e., the algorithm based on the fusion of UWB+PDR of the nonL-LS) in the experiment, and the positioning effect is worse than that of the method of the present embodiment. PDR represents a positioning track positioned by adopting pure PDR, the positioning errors of the method are gradually accumulated, the positioning track is gradually diverged, and the positioning effect is poorer than that of the method of the embodiment; the UWB represents the positioning track adopting pure UWB positioning, the positioning error of the method is smaller than that of the positioning method of the embodiment, but the comparison of the positioning track of the embodiment, the pure UWB positioning track and the real path GD shows that the embodiment not only fits the real path GD well, but also can obtain the positioning precision close to the pure UWB, thus the method of the embodiment can ensure the positioning precision after the UWB positioning is invalid.
Conclusion of experiment: through the positioning experiment in the indoor environment, the positioning method of the embodiment can ensure the positioning precision after the UWB positioning system fails, can also reduce the cost of additionally arranging UWB base station nodes, and remarkably improves the applicability of the UWB positioning system in the complex environment.
