Embodiment Construction

[0027] The present invention uses the built-in microphone and loudspeaker on the smart phone platform to send and receive 2k-6kHz linear frequency modulation sound signals in a multi-channel sensing manner, and then uses generalized cross-correlation to detect the sampling waveforms of each mobile phone node to obtain The arrival time of chirp sound signals between different nodes, and further, the MDS positioning algorithm is used to estimate the location information of unknown nodes. The method can realize self-location under limited beacon nodes, has strong applicability, and does not require the support of special customized hardware modules, thereby reducing the cost.

Abstract

The invention discloses a self-localization method of a sensor network node based on a smartphone. The method uses a general smartphone to replace a custom hardware module to be used as a network node, a plurality of mobile phone nodes orderly transmit linear frequency modulation (LFM) sound signals of 2k-6kHz by means of a loudspeaker and a microphone, and meanwhile, different mobile phone nodes sample the linear frequency modulation sound signals at a fixed frequency (44.1 kHz). Detection is performed on a sampling waveform by means of a generalized correlation method, and in view of a multipath effect, the self-localization method of the sensor network node based on the smartphone provided by the invention adopts a method of combining a threshold value method and time-frequency analysis to effectively inhibit the multipath effect, so that the arrival time of the linear frequency modulation sound signals can be obtained, then distance information between different nodes can be obtained, and finally, the unknown nodes can be located by adopting a multidimensional scaling (MDS) algorithm. The method of the invention does not need clock synchronization between the mobile phone nodes, and since the frequency is fixed, the arrival time of the sound signals can be accurately estimated through a sampling number; besides, the location accuracy is high, the cost is low, the networking is convenient and the prospect is wide.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a node self-positioning method, in particular to a smart phone-based sensor network node self-positioning method. Background technique [0002] In the application of sensor networks, the location information of nodes plays a very important role in many fields of sensor network applications, especially in indoor and outdoor environments where GPS applications are limited. By obtaining the location information of nodes, not only can the topology of the network be established, and then the cooperation of nodes can be realized, but it is also crucial for data fusion and network management. At present, there are many methods and researches on self-location of nodes. The present invention is a kind of node self-location method that uses a general-purpose smart phone instead of a customized hardware module as a sensor node, only uses acoustic signals, and uses the MDS algorithm to realize node self-location. It is suitable for limited...
