Example Embodiment

[0017] The present invention will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments.

[0018] Such as figure 1 As shown, the target to be positioned uses LED lights to send visible light signals, and the signal receiving end has at least 3 light detectors with known coordinates to simultaneously receive light signals from the LED lights. figure 1 Among them, D1, D2, and D3 are 3 unevenly distributed photodetectors. The sending frequency of the LED light at the sending end is ω 1 , The initial phase is q 1 Sine wave, namely sin(ω 1 t+q 1 ). There are two different optical detectors D1 and D2 at the receiving end, and the optical signal received by D1 is expressed as: S 1 =A 1 sin(ω 1 t+ω 1 t 1 +q 1 ), where A 1 Is the gain, t 1 It is the transmission delay of the optical signal to the optical detector D1. The optical signal received by the optical detector D2 is expressed as: S 2 =A 2 sin(ω 1 t+ω 1 t 2 +q 1 ), where A 2 Is the gain, t 2 It is ...

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of communication and space positioning, and especially relates to a triangular positioning system and method based on visible light. A to-be-positioned target employs an LED lamp for transmitting a visible light signal, and a signal receiving end employs a plurality of light detectors with known coordinates and receives a light signal from an LED. The light detectors enables measured signals to be gathered in a processing unit, and the phase difference is calculated, thereby obtaining an optical path difference from the LED to the plurality of light detectors. The coordinates of the signal receiving end can be calculated according to the triangle geometric principle. According to the invention, a transmission end is simple in hardware, and can be extended to a plurality of positioning targets. Moreover, all calculation and processing can be completed at the receiving end, thereby facilitating the synchronization and control. Therefore, the system and method are low in cost and are wide in application range.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of space positioning, and in particular relates to a triangulation positioning system and method based on visible light. Background technique [0002] LED (Lighting Emitting Diode) is called the fourth-generation lighting source or green light source. It has the characteristics of energy saving, environmental protection, long life, small size, etc., and has been widely used for indication and lighting. As the LED as a semiconductor light source can also achieve high-speed modulation, and the visible light band as an optical carrier can realize wireless communication, the LED technology for visible light communication has become increasingly mature in recent years. [0003] LED-based positioning is a potential application direction of visible light communication. Due to the flexible placement of LEDs and wide coverage, the distance from the detection point to the LED can be accurately known by means of visibl...
