Description

一种实现无线定位的方法、系统及定位位置计算装置 技术领域
本申请涉及无线通信领域,尤指一种实现无线定位的方法、系统及定位位置计算装置。
背景技术
随着时代的不断发展,定位技术受到越来越多的重视,高精度定位需求,尤其是米级定位精度,对无线定位提出了更高的技术要求。
GPS定位技术由于信号损耗等原因,在室内信号变弱的情况下,定位终端将无法搜索到足够的卫星;蜂窝网系统由于定位误差很大,无论在室外还是在室内都无法达到足够的精度,无法满足无线定位需求。
为了解决室内高精度定位问题,需要在地面建立无线定位系统。地面无线定位系统的各个定位信号站在近地布设。建立地面无线定位网络有多种方式,包括采用卫星制式的地面伪卫星系统、无线局域网系统等等。其中,地面伪卫星系统需要手机能够处理地面卫星和太空卫星信号的共存,对其动态范围提出了很大的要求;无线局域网主要采用基于信号强度的测距方法,定位精度严重依赖布设的网路密度,对定位网成本提出了很大要求。
通信网具有良好的覆盖,但由于现有通信网主要面对通信需求,对定位需求研究较少。通信网的定位误差在百米到数千米范围内,无法满足室内外定位需求,因此,通信网在定位领域处于边缘地位。如果通过增加通信网密度来提高定位精度,则会形成较大的网络建设成本,同时增加了网络间干扰。
表1为现有的LTE标准中支持的定位方式(来源:3GPP TS 36.305 V12.0.0(2013-12));
表1中,A-GNSS:基于导航卫星定位方式,卫星信号接收定位终端测量卫星信号的到达时间,然后根据导航电文信息计算定位终端的位置, 然后通过无线通信传给定位中心;Downlink(下行链路定位方式):定位终端测量LTE基站下行信号,把测量结果发给定位中心;目前标准中对Downlink定位方式只支持UE-assisted模式,即由UE进行辅助,而由定位中心(E-SMLC)进行定位的模式;ECID(增强小区ID定位方式),根据小区ID定位,定位精度较低;Uplink(上行链路定位方式),基站对定位终端的信号进行测量,然后发给定位中心。
Figure PCTCN2015071151-appb-000001
表1
从表1可以看出,除了A-GNSS之外,LTE不支持UE-based定位方式,即在Downlink或Uplink方式下,也必须通过网络,在定位中心(E-SMLC)中实现定位。在通信状况不佳的场景下,如衰落、干扰大等,上述定位模式将无法实现定位终端的定位,因此LTE的定位模式限制了利用LTE系统进行定位的实现。

本发明实施例通过新增的定位方式为Downlink和定位特征为UE-based的定位模式,在能够进行网络连接时,更新本地静态存储的PSS信息和定位模式;在不能进行网络连接时,直接读取本地静态存储的PSS信息和定位模式。由于发射定位信号采用的是广播的方式,不需要通信网的网络资源,在通信网不能进行网络连接时,仍然可以进行定位测量装置的定位。
在LTE的协议标准中,表1已经定义了实现方式和实现特征允许的其他定位模式,本发明实施例新提出了:实现方式为Downlink和实现特征为UE-based=yes、及实现方式为Downlink和实现特征为UE-based=no,且UE=assisted和定位中心E-SMLC-based=yes的定位模式。表2为包含本发明实施例定位模式的信息表。
和相关技术相比,本发明实施例增加了通过定位测量装置计算自身位置信息的部分。从本发明实施例的方法可见,由于增加了预先设定的定位模式,利用新增定位网元进行定位测量装置的位置计算,提高了定位测量装置的定 位精度;通过定义定位测量装置进行位置计算,增加了定位计算的实现方式。
本发明实施例钟差信息包含:PSS相对参考时钟的钟差信息、和/或PMS之间的钟差信息。
当PSS发射的定位信号已根据参考时钟进行修正,则钟差信息不包含PSS相对参考时钟的钟差信息。
当每个PMS之间的时钟已经被修正,则钟差信息不包含每个PMS之间的钟差信息。

本实施例中,假定定位测量装置的定位信息存储单元没有信息(即上次关机前存储的信息),且从通信盲点B点(不能收到eNodeB1、eNodeB2、eNodeB3通信信号的区域)移动到A点。假设定位测量装置在B点时开机,且其定位网元信息为空。也可假设定位网元信息为开机前的定位所获得的定位网元信息,本实施例为了说明定位网元信息的请求过程,假设定位网元信息为空。设定的定位模式为:实现方式为Downlink和实现特征为UE-based=yes。
当定位测量装置在通信盲区B时,由于无法实现通信,因此无法完成自己的定位过程。
当定位测量装置移动到A点时,能够接收到基站信号,假设此时定位测量装置的归属基站为eNodeB1。
下面说明本实施例实现方式为Downlink和实现特征为UE-based=yes的定位模式执行过程。
定位测量装置通过eNodeB1接入网络,并把归属基站的CELL ID发给E-SMLC,以根据所述CELLID更新本地静态存储的定位网元信息,本实施例具体包括:

根据获得的每个PSS的位置信息及钟差信息,及接收定位信号时获得的每个PSS发射的定位信号的到达时间,定位测量装置计算自身的位置。
本实施例中,由于对定位测量装置的定位请求是定位测量装置本身发起,因此,无需把位置信息发给E-SMLC。
实施例3

图8为本发明第三实施例的网络结构示意图,如图8所示,

PMS2管理下的PSS3的位置信息、钟差信息;PSS4的位置信息、钟差信息;
PMS3管理下的PSS5的位置信息、钟差信息;PSS6的位置信息、钟差信息。
定位测量装置把这些信息在本地进行静态存储(假设为动态定位网元信息)。
当定位测量装置在B点时,不能够接入网络,假设此时定位测量装置仍然能够接收到足够的PSS发过来的定位信号,下面是此时定位测量装置自身发起定位请求时的过程。
定位测量装置检测定位信号,获得所述CELLID相应的每个PMS ID所辖的每个PSS的ID、及每个PSS发射的定位信号的到达时间;本实施例中,定位测量装置检测到每个PMS ID及PSS i(i从1到6)发射的定位信号的到达时间。
根据本实施例的定位模式,定位测量装置根据记录的每个PMS ID及每个PSS ID查找获得每个PSS的位置信息及钟差信息;
本实施例通过PMS ID、PSS ID在动态定位网元信息中检索到PSS i(i从1到6)的位置信息和钟差信息。
根据获得的每个PSS的位置信息及钟差信息,及接收定位信号时获得的每个PSS发射的定位信息的到达时间,定位测量装置计算自身的位置。
本实施例中,由于对定位测量装置的定位请求是终端本身发起,因此,终端无需把位置信息发给E-SMLC。
