Positioning method and device based on network topology

Abstract

The invention provides a positioning method and device based on the network topology. The method comprises the steps of obtaining performance data of at least one preset site online accessed by users, extracting network topology feature vectors corresponding to the users from the obtained performance data, dividing the users corresponding to the same or similar network topology feature vectors into the same user group, positioning any user in any divided user group, and determining the area which the positioning result belongs to the area where the user groups are located. According to the positioning method and device, the positioning range of PC users can be effectively reduced to the low-level areas such as street scenes and cells, and therefore networking services based on the geographic position can be provided for the PC users more effectively.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to a positioning method and device, in particular to a technology for determining a user position based on a network topology. Background technique [0002] Currently on the Internet, the positioning of PC (Personal Computer, i.e. personal computer, such as: desktop, notebook, etc.) users is mainly through the IP address (Internet Protocol Address, i.e. Internet Protocol address) of the PC device and the geographical location. To achieve this, there are various public IP positioning systems and IP query sites (such as: http: / / ip.chinaz.com / ) available on the market. However, the positioning level of this positioning method is relatively low, only It can be accurate to the province, city, and district level, and the positioning range is too large, so that third-party Internet service providers cannot effectively provide users with various network services based on geographic location. [0003] Therefore, how to further n...
