Description

一种室内定位方法及装置、服务器、用户设备 技术领域
本申请涉及但不限于通信技术领域,尤其涉及一种室内定位方法及装置、服务器、用户设备。
背景技术
随着时代的进步与发展,定位技术得到越为广泛的重视。高精度定位需求,尤其是米级定位精度需求不断增加。与此同时,室内场景也对无线定位提出了更高的技术要求。
目前还没有一种单一的无线定位技术能够同时满足定位准确、实时、适应性强、可靠性高和成本低的特点。GPS(Global Positioning System,全球定位系统)定位技术由于信号损耗等原因,在室内信号变弱,使得定位终端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。压力传感器、蓝牙、Zigbee、RFID(Radio Frequency Identification,射频识别)等技术,这些定位技术的应用场景也非常特殊,只能够提供某些局部环境的定位,比较难支撑大范围、广泛应用的定位需求。
指纹定位技术具有米级定位精度性能且无需知道基站的位置和准确的信道模型的特点,可以很好地反映当前环境的特征,不过需要建立指纹数据库并在环境变化时更新指纹数据库以保证其定位有效性,而数据库的建立与更新需要耗费大量的人力物力。
传感器融合定位通过对各种独立的传感器信息进行融合,达到各种传感器信息互补和协同工作的效果,能提高整个系统的有效性。传感器定位不依赖于外界环境信息的条件下连续自主定位,并且短期内噪声小、稳定性好。但传感器存在较大的固有误差和随机测量误差等,长时间的误差积累会导致导航精度的下降,因此不适于长期单独工作和长距离定位。

详述
以下结合附图对本申请进行详细说明。应当理解,此处所描述的实施例仅仅用以解释本申请,并不限定本申请。
如图1所示,本申请实施例提供一种室内定位方法,基于服务器,包括:
S11,从无线定位节点接收所述无线定位节点测量到的用户设备定位信号,所述用户设备定位信号为用户设备向所述无线定位节点定时发送的上行信号;
S12,如果所述用户设备定位信号的强度以及变化趋势都与预先存储于服务器的定位指纹数据库中第一室内区域的指纹信息相匹配,将所述指纹信息对应的标点位置信息向所述用户设备发送。
其中,所述定位指纹数据库中存储有第一室内区域和第二室内区域的指纹信息,所述第一室内区域的指纹密度大于或等于第一阈值,所述第二室内区域的指纹密度小于或等于第二阈值;所述第一阈值大于所述第二阈值。
本实施例提供的室内定位方法,服务器能够从无线定位节点接收所述无 线定位节点测量到的用户设备定位信号,由于用户设备定位信号是定时发送的,因此可以检测到多个;在与指纹信息进行匹配时,不仅可以单独匹配每个用户设备定位信号的强度,还可以联合多个用户设备定位信号彼此之间的变化趋势进行指纹信息的匹配,因此,可以将用户设备所在位置更为精确地匹配到对应的指纹信息,并通过将该指纹信息对应的标点位置信息发送给该用户设备,而使该用户设备获知自身所在的室内位置。又由于第一室内区域的指纹密度和第二室内区域的指纹密度不同,只需要在关键位置部署较为密集的指纹信息,而在其他位置部署较为稀疏的指纹信息,即可对所有区域范围的用户设备进行精确定位,从而在大大节省了资源消耗的情况下,显著改善了定位效果。
其中,在步骤S11中,用户设备可以每隔预设时长向无线定位节点发送一个用户设备定位信号,例如每个5秒钟向无线定位节点发送一个用户设备定位信号。由于用户设备距离无线定位节点的远近不同,无线定位节点实际测量到的用户设备定位信号也有所差别。无线定位节点可以将测量到的用户设备定位信号向服务器发送,以供服务器进行定位分析。
示例性地,所述用户设备定位信号可以为所述用户设备向所述无线定位节点定时发送的各种上行信号,例如探测(sounding)信号等。而无线定位节点可以是基站、无线路由器、计算机等可以与用户设备通信或者可以接收用户设备的上行信号的设备。
步骤S11中,服务器接收到无线定位节点传来的用户设备定位信号之后,服务器可以将该用户设备定位信号与预先存储的指纹信息进行匹配,根据匹配结果来定位该用户设备。其中,指纹信息可以预先存储于定位指纹数据库中,定位指纹数据库中存储的指纹信息可以来自在线定位之前的离线阶段对室内信号分布的测量。为了使建立的定位指纹数据库能够精确且高效地对用户设备进行室内定位,可以对不同的室内区域进行不同密度的指纹信息部署。例如,可以对第一室内区域进行较高密度的指纹信息部署,如指纹密度大于或等于第一阈值,对第二室内区域进行较低密度的指纹信息部署,如指纹密度小于或等于第二阈值。其中,第一室内区域可以包括用户进出室内的必经之路,或者用户在室内会频繁活动的场所,例如门口区域、电梯区域、拐角 区域、卡座区域中的一种或几种。第二室内区域可以为第一室内区域以外的区域。第一阈值和第二阈值的大小都可以根据需要进行调整,第二阈值最小可以为0,也就是只在第一室内区域中部署有相应的指纹信息,其他区域的指纹信息密度为0。通过疏密有致的指纹部署,在大大节省了资源消耗的情况下,显著改善了定位效果。
示例性地,为了获知用户设备定位信号的强度以及变化趋势是否都与预先存储于服务器的定位指纹数据库中第一室内区域的指纹信息相匹配,在从无线定位节点接收所述无线定位节点测量到的用户设备定位信号之后,将所述指纹信息对应的标点位置信息向所述用户设备发送之前,本实施例提供的室内定位方法还可包括:
匹配所述用户设备定位信号与所述定位指纹数据库中对应的指纹信号的强度;
如果强度匹配差值小于预设强度阈值,匹配所述用户设备定位信号之间的变化趋势与所述定位指纹数据库中对应的指纹信号的变化趋势;
如果趋势匹配差值小于预设变化阈值,确定所述用户设备定位信号的强度以及变化趋势都与所述定位指纹数据库中的指纹信息相匹配。
其中,强度匹配差值是每个用户设备定位信号的强度与定位指纹数据库中的指纹信息的信号强度值都比较吻合,即使存在差值,该差值也较小,小于预设强度阈值。趋势匹配差值是指多个用户设备定位信号之间的变化趋势与定位指纹数据库中的指纹信息的信号变化趋势大体一致,示例性地,变化趋势既可以包括方向变化趋势,也可以包括强度变化趋势,还可以包括二者的结合,本实施例对此不作限定。例如,在一个实施例中,如果用户设备定位信号以0.2米/秒的速度向北偏东20度方向匀速移动,指纹信息中的信号为以0.18米/秒的速度向北偏东23度,二者差值小于预设的方向变化阈值5度和强度变化阈值0.05米/秒,则确定该指纹信息对应的标点位置即可作为该用户设备的位置。
示例性地,在进行上述匹配时,匹配方法可以根据使用场景进行不同的选择,可以通过概率匹配、机器学习和路径拟合等方法中的一种或几种完成强度匹配和变化趋势匹配中的至少之一。例如,对于指纹信息中的几个可选 数据,采信其中吻合概率大的数据,再结合地图信息进行路径拟合,从而完成信息匹配。示例性地,在经过一次次的匹配和定位后,还可以通过机器学习逐渐优化匹配算法,从而使匹配的准确度越来越高。
示例性地,不同的第一室内区域对应的定位指纹数据库的数据特征不尽相同,匹配步骤也可能稍有差别。下面针对不同的第一室内区域分别进行详细说明。
门口匹配:在离线时,服务器的定位指纹数据库按照进门、出门和门口左右移动4个方向存储4L个实时sounding信号以及其方向信息;在线阶段,将接收到的L个实时sounding信号与定位指纹数据库进行匹配。匹配规则可包括:首先进行L个实时sounding信号的绝对值匹配,确定有门口位置可能性后,对L个实时sounding信号进行方向匹配;匹配均高于门限时,标定位置。
电梯匹配:在离线时,服务器的定位指纹数据库按照进、出电梯和电梯上下移动4个方向存储4L个实时sounding信号以及其方向信息;在线阶段,将接收到的L个实时sounding信号与定位指纹数据库进行匹配;匹配规则包括:L个实时sounding信号的绝对值匹配和通过L个实时sounding信号得到的方向匹配;匹配均高于门限时,标定位置。
拐角匹配:在离线时,服务器的定位指纹数据库按照顺时针和逆时针2个方向通过拐角,存储2L个实时sounding信号和能量的剧烈变化情况;在线阶段,将接收到的L个实时sounding信号与数据库进行匹配;匹配规则包括:L个实时sounding信号的绝对值匹配,确定拐角匹配位置可能性后;匹配对应基站能量的剧烈变换情况;匹配均高于门限时,标定位置。
基站的正下方:在离线时,服务器的定位指纹数据库存储L个实时sounding信号和其对应基站的低损耗;在线阶段,将接收到的L个实时sounding信号与定位指纹数据库进行匹配;匹配规则包括:L个实时sounding信号的绝对值匹配,确定基站正下方匹配位置可能性后;匹配对应基站能量的低损耗情况;匹配均高于门限时,标定位置。
如图2所示,本申请实施例还提供一种室内定位方法,基于用户设备,包括:
S21,向无线定位节点定时发送用户设备定位信号,以使所述无线定位节点测量所述用户设备定位信号并向服务器上报测量结果;
S22,接收所述服务器根据所述测量结果和定位指纹数据库中的指纹信息确定的标点位置信息;
S23,以所述标点位置信息确定当前位置。
其中,所述定位指纹数据库设置在所述服务器中,所述定位指纹数据库中存储有第一室内区域和第二室内区域的指纹信息,所述第一室内区域的指纹密度大于或等于第一阈值,所述第二室内区域的指纹密度小于或等于第二阈值;所述第一阈值大于所述第二阈值。
本实施例提供的室内定位方法,用户设备能够向无线定位节点定时发送用户设备定位信号,以使所述无线定位节点测量所述用户设备定位信号并向服务器上报测量结果,然后接收所述服务器根据所述测量结果和定位指纹数据库中的指纹信息确定的标点位置信息。由于定位信号是定时发送的,每隔一段时间就会发送一个,在服务器进行指纹信息匹配时,不仅可以单独匹配每个用户设备定位信号的强度,还可以联合多个用户设备定位信号彼此之间的变化趋势进行指纹信息的匹配,因此,可以将用户设备所在位置更为精确地匹配到对应的指纹信息,当用户设备接收到该指纹信息对应的标点位置信息时,可以将该标点位置信息作为自身所在的室内位置。又由于第一室内区域的指纹密度和第二室内区域的指纹密度不同,只需要在关键位置部署较为密集的指纹信息,而在其他位置部署较为稀疏的指纹信息,即可对所有区域范围的用户设备进行精确定位,从而在大大节省了资源消耗的情况下,显著改善了定位效果。
示例性地,在步骤S21中,向无线定位节点定时发送用户设备定位信号可包括:以10毫秒为间隔向所述无线定位节点发送2至6个所述用户设备定位信号,以使服务器将无线定位节点测量到的用户设备定位信号与定位指纹数据库中的指纹信息做匹配。
由于采用指纹信息对用户设备进行了准确的定位,用户设备可以用这一准确的定位信息校正自身的定位传感器,以便使定位传感器纠正累积误差。在一个实施例中,用户设备在接收所述服务器根据所述测量结果和定位指纹 数据库中的指纹信息确定的标点位置信息之后,还可包括:将自身的定位传感器的初始位置坐标清零。这样在用户设备无法接收服务器发送的标点位置信息的情况下,可以使用所述定位传感器和最近一次接收到的标点位置信息确定当前位置。例如,假如用户当前所在位置并不属于指纹信息密集的区域,而用户设备最近一次从服务器接收到的标点位置信息为2分钟前在电梯附近,则用户可以根据该2分钟前接收到的标点位置信息以及自身定位传感器记录的相对位置信息,确定用户设备当前所处的位置。例如,可以融合标点位置与传感器定位结果,匹配地图信息,显示定位结果。
下面通过实施例对本申请实施例提供的室内定位方法进行详细说明。
图3为本申请实施例提供的室内定位方法所基于的系统的结构示意图,图4为基于该系统的室内定位方法的一种流程图。结合图3和图4,本实施例提供的室内定位方法可包括如下步骤:
步骤301、终端接入无线定位节点,本实施例中无线定位节点可以为基站;
步骤302、基站为终端(即用户设备)配置用户设备定位信号,例如SRS(Sounding Reference Signal,探测参考信号);
步骤303、终端按照之前的配置向基站发送用户设备定位信号;
步骤304、基站测量接收到的SRS;
步骤305、基站向定位服务器发送测量信息;
步骤306、定位服务器对接收到的测量信息中的用户设备定位信号与定位指纹数据库中的指纹信息进行匹配;
步骤307、如果匹配成功,定位服务器将对应的标点位置信息发送给终端,否则不发送相应的消息;
步骤308、终端更新标点信息;
步骤309、终端将自身的定位传感器重新定位;
步骤310、终端估计自身的绝对位置;
步骤311、终端根据定位服务器的请求反馈自己的位置信息。
其中,在步骤306中,是否能够将用户设备定位信号与定位指纹数据库中的指纹信息匹配成功,与用户设备所处的位置有关。如果该用户设备正处于指纹密集的第一室内区域,则有很大的可能匹配成功,如果该用户设备正处于指纹稀疏的第二室内区域,则可能会匹配不到合适的指纹信息。在匹配不到合适的指纹信息时,用户设备可以结合自身的定位传感器以及最近一次接收到的标点位置信息,估计自身所处位置。
下面分别对几种典型的第一室内区域中的定位情况进行详细说明。
图5是门口位置定位示意图。如图5所示,本实施例中,在无线网络中有3个基站,即eNodeB1、eNodeB2、eNodeB3,一个服务器和一个终端(UE,User Equipment)。定位场景为进出门口。
下面以门口位置进门状况为例,对本实施例提供的室内定位方法进行详细说明。门口位置常见移动方式为:进、出门和门口方向的左右移动。
离线阶段服务器数据库按照进门、出门和门口左右移动4个方向存储4L个实时sounding信号以及其方向信息。
在线定位阶段,UE按照时钟间隔发送sounding信号给基站,行进到门口位置时,基站接收并测量终端发射的sounding信号,以10ms为间隔连续上传L个实时sounding信号给服务器。服务器将接收到的L个实时sounding信号与数据库进行匹配。匹配规则包括:首先进行L个实时sounding信号的绝对值匹配,确定有门口位置可能性后;对L个实时sounding信号进行方向匹配;匹配均高于门限时,标定位置。服务器将标定的位置坐标发送给UE。
UE接收服务器的标点认定坐标,同时对传感器清零。UE融合服务器的标点定位和传感器定位,输出UE的实时位置坐标。
图6是电梯位置定位示意图。如图6所示,在无线网络中有3个基站,即eNodeB1、eNodeB2、eNodeB3,一个服务器和一个终端。定位场景为电梯上下行。
下面以电梯位置上下行状况为例,对本实施例提供的室内定位方法进行说明。电梯位置常见移动方式为:进、出电梯和电梯方向的上下移动。
离线阶段服务器数据库按照进、出电梯和电梯方向的上下移动4个方向 存储4L个实时sounding信号以及其方向信息。
在线定位阶段,UE处于电梯上行位置时,UE继续按照时钟间隔发送sounding信号给基站,基站接收并测量终端发射的sounding信号,以10ms为间隔连续上传L个实时sounding信号给服务器。服务器将接收到的L个实时sounding信号与数据库进行匹配。由于电梯上下移动中接收不同基站功率变化方向明显,所以按照如下匹配规则匹配:L个实时sounding信号的绝对值匹配和通过L个实时sounding信号得到的方向匹配;匹配均高于门限时,标定位置。服务器将标定的位置坐标发送给UE。
UE接收服务器的标点认定电梯坐标,同时对传感器清零。UE融合服务器的标点定位和传感器定位,输出UE的实时位置坐标。
图7是拐角位置定位示意图。如图7所示,在无线网络中有3个基站,即eNodeB1、eNodeB2、eNodeB3,一个服务器和一个终端。定位场景为拐角通行。
下面以拐角位置顺时针通行状况为例,对网络侧稀疏指纹定位与手机传感器融合定位进行说明。拐角位置常见移动方式为:顺时针和逆时针移动。离线阶段服务器数据库按照顺、逆时针2个方向存储2L个实时sounding信号以及其方向信息。
在线定位阶段,行进到拐角位置时的UE继续按照时钟间隔发送sounding信号给基站,基站接收并测量终端发射的sounding信号,以10ms为间隔连续上传L个实时sounding信号给服务器。服务器将接收到的L个实时sounding信号与数据库进行匹配。由于拐角位置通常伴有某些径的消失和出现,所以匹配规则包括:L个实时sounding信号的绝对值匹配,确定拐角匹配位置可能性后;匹配对应基站能量的剧烈变换情况;匹配均高于门限时,标定位置。服务器将标定的位置坐标发送给UE。
UE接收服务器的标点认定坐标,同时对传感器清零。UE融合服务器的标点定位和传感器定位,输出UE的实时位置坐标。

本实施例提供的室内定位装置,由于用户设备定位信号定时发送,具有多个,在与指纹信息进行匹配时,不仅可以单独匹配每个用户设备定位信号的强度,还可以联合多个用户设备定位信号彼此之间的变化趋势进行指纹信息的匹配,因此,可以将用户设备所在位置更为精确地匹配到对应的指纹信息,并通过将该指纹信息对应的标点位置信息发送给该用户设备,而使该用户设备获知自身所在的室内位置。又由于第一室内区域的指纹密度和第二室内区域的指纹密度不同,只需要在关键位置部署较为密集的指纹信息,而在其他位置部署较为稀疏的指纹信息,即可对所有区域范围的用户设备进行精确定位,从而在大大节省了资源消耗的情况下,显著改善了定位效果。
