GoIn—An accurate 3D indoor navigation framework based on light landmarks

Abstract

Wireless computer network (WLAN)-based building-level positioning coupled with cellular information is thoroughly investigated in literature. This paper introduces a framework for accurate indoor positioning system (IPS) and navigation, which outperforms known algorithms. The main idea is to use a modified particle filter with weights computed as a function of radio frequency (RF) finger-printing, odometry, visual landmarks, and map constraints. Visual landmarks are extracted using a low resolution camera to track dominant landmarks such as lights. We demonstrate the efficiency of this framework on an Android-based mobile device on various indoor scenes with some prior knowledge. Our method allows a robust positioning compared with other systems evaluated under the same conditions, at 30 Hz and with a fairly low energy consumption.NAVIGATION. 2019;66:633-642.wileyonlinelibrary.com/journal/navi

ABC-ANN Based Indoor Position Estimation Using Preprocessed RSSI

“…An Android-based application was constructed and presented in the study. It was reported that the proposed system had an 11.7 m error in an area with dimensions of 200 m × 80 m [19]. Chai et al employed the Kalman filter to calculate the distance between a beacon and a cell phone.…”

One‐way deep indoor positioning system for conventional GNSS receiver using paired transmitters

“…As the necessity of indoor positioning has emerged, various positioning methods have been proposed, such as wireless local area network‐based or WIFI‐based (Landa et al., 2019; Mazuelas et al., 2009; Syed & Arslan, 2011), ultra‐wideband‐based (Kok et al., 2015; Pagès & Vilà‐Valls, 2019; Yan et al., 2013), radio‐frequency identification‐based (Saab & Nakad, 2011; Tang & Kim, 2010), Bluetooth‐based (Ai et al., 2019), and long‐term evolution‐based (Abdallah et al., 2019; Shin et al., 2019) algorithms. Each of these algorithms has pros and cons (Mautz, 2012), and a suitable method may vary depending on the indoor environment and the user.…”

Localização em Ambientes Indoor a partir da Distorção de um Padrão de Fontes Luminosas

“…Uma alternativa para a implementação de IPSsé usar fontes luminosas. Elas podem ser empregadas como pontos de referências para obter uma localização grosseira, a partir da qual a posição do dispositivoé refinada em [2]. Em [3], a localizaçãoé obtida a partir de mudanças na resposta ao impulso do canalóptico.…”
