Problems solved by technology

[0005] The main defect of the existing technology is that the iBeacon base stations deployed indoors generally belong to different shops or companies. When a shop or company changes the ID of the iBeacon base station it deploys, the third-party positioning service provider is performing indoor positioning. When the data in the positioning library is not modified in time, it will cause technical problems such as positioning failure or decreased positioning accuracy.

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a method and device for generating an environment feature library and an indoor positioning method and device based on the environment feature library. The method for generating the environment feature library comprises steps of: acquiring the environmental information of a position where a positioning beacon is located; generating an environment feature model according to the acquired environmental information; and using the environment feature model as a stable identifier of the positioning beacon and correspondingly storing the stable identifier and the positional information of the positioning beacon in the environment feature library. According to the technical scheme of the invention, a relation is established between the positioning beacon and the environmental information corresponding thereto so that a third-party positioning service provider, even though an iBeacon base station deploy party changes the ID of an iBeacon base station deployed thereby, may accurately identify the iBeacon base station and rapidly and accurately performs indoor positioning according to the position of the iBeacon base station.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to indoor positioning technology, and in particular to a method and device for generating an environmental feature library and indoor positioning based on the environmental feature library. Background technique [0002] Bluetooth technology is a technology suitable for wireless data transmission within a short-distance local area network. It has the characteristics of low power consumption and multiple supported services, and has been widely used in mobile terminals. iBeacon (beacon) is a set of specifications based on the Bluetooth 4.0 protocol developed by Apple, which is mainly used indoors. [0003] At present, a large number of iBeacon base stations are deployed in large indoor buildings such as shopping malls and office buildings. When a mobile terminal approaches an iBeacon base station, it can sense a corresponding iBeacon signal. Through the iBeacon base station, when the user enters the radiation a...
