Abstract:

Considering the problem that the construction of fingerprint database in indoor positioning research requires a lot of manpower and time for signal acquisition,this paper proposes an algorithm for fingerprint database expansion based on the dual beacon mechanism and radial basis neural network.This algorithm can flexibly adjust the sampling ratio of beacon points according to the needs of the scene,and obtain the lowest sampling overhead under the premise of ensuring the accuracy of prediction.The algorithm uses the radial basis neural network to mine the deep connection between the position of the beacon and the signal to predict the signal strength of the position to be estimated,and achieve the purpose of expanding the fingerprint database.Tested by the actual scene,on the premise of ensuring the accuracy of prediction,the proposed algorithm expands the fingerprint database by 140%.Through experimental verification,the average prediction error is reduced by more than 12% compared with the existing algorithms.

Key words: indoor positioning, fingerprint positioning, fingerprint database construction, dual beacon
