Abstract:

At present,the interaction mechanism between the complex indoor environment and pseudolite signals has not been fundamentally resolved,and the stability,continuity,and accuracy of indoor positioning are still technical bottlenecks.Existing fingerprint positioning methods face the limitation that the collection workload is proportional to the positioning accuracy and positioning range,and have the disadvantage that the positioning cannot be completed without actual collection.In order to solve the above shortcomings of the existing methods,by combining the advantages of actual measurement,mathematical simulation and the artificial neural network,an indoor pseudolite hybrid fingerprint location method based on actual fingerprints,simulation fingerprints and the artificial neural network is proposed.First,the actual environment and signal transceiver are modeled.Second,both the simulated fingerprints generated by ray tracing simulation after conversion and the measured fingerprints are added to the input of the neural network,which expands the sample characteristics of the input data set of the original single measured fingerprints.Finally,the artificial neural network positioning model is jointly trained by the mixed fingerprints and then used for online positioning.By taking an airport environment as an example,it is proved that the hybrid method can improve the positioning accuracy of the sparsely collected fingerprint region,and that the root mean square error is 0.485 0 m,which is 54.7% lower than that of the traditional fingerprint positioning method.Preliminary positioning can also be completed in areas where no fingerprints are collected,and the root mean square positioning error is 1.123 7 m,which breaks through the limitations of traditional fingerprint location methods.
