Abstract:

Ultra-Wide Band(UWB) wireless communication technology has been widely used in the field of indoor navigation and positioning. However, the stability of pedestrian positioning systems based on UWB is not good in complex indoor environments, resulting in increased positioning errors. In order to solve this problem, this study proposes a Pedestrian Dead Reckoning(UWB/PDR) system based on adaptive Unscented Kalman Filter(UKF). The system uses the UKF algorithm to fuse the PDR model and the UWB positioning information to obtain the optimal position estimate. The probability density function of the step difference obtained by the UWB positioning and the PDR system is used to calculate the non-line of sight evaluation probability of the positioning point, and the evaluation result is applied to the adaptive noise adjustment of the system to improve the adaptability of the system for the environment. Experimental verification results show that the system can effectively reduce the positioning error in a complex environment, improve the accuracy and stability of the pedestrian positioning results, and its average positioning accuracy is less than 10 cm.
