Embodiment 1

[0027] In the embodiment of the present invention, first configure the switch network parameters, arrange UWB receivers on the ceiling according to the principle of every 30-100 meters, connect each UWB receiver end-to-end through a daisy chain or a star connection with a shielded network cable Connecting with the switch, on the one hand, it can realize the full coverage of the signal in the positioning area, and on the other hand, it can reduce the number of deployments of UWB receivers. Changes in the indoor environment will inevitably affect the degree of signal attenuation, so the placement distance of UWB receivers needs to be adjusted according to the actual situation. When the indoor area is small, the distance between UWB receivers should be set at about 30 meters. The distance should not be too small, otherwise it will easily cause interference and affect the positioning accuracy; when the indoor area is large, the distance between the receivers can be enlarged, and th...

Abstract

The invention discloses an indoor robot positioning and environment modeling method based on UWB (ultra-wide band) and multiple sensors. The method is characterized in that a UWB label transmits pulse data packets formed by ultra-wide-band pulses to UWB receivers, the UWB receivers transmits the time differences of the pulse data packets reaching the receivers to a central processing unit through a switch, and the central processing unit preliminarily determine the position of the UWB label through a trilateral weighted centroid algorithm; an electronic compass collects the current course angle information of the robot, ultrasonic sensors collect currently-returned ultrasonic signals, and the central processing unit acquires the position information of obstacles according to the signals collected by the ultrasonic sensors and a Kalman filtering algorithm and update an environment map; the central processing unit fuses the preliminarily determined position of the UWB label, the current course angle information and the position information of the obstacles according to a double-layer Kalman filtering algorithm to obtain the precise current pose information of the robot. By the method, positioning precision, instantaneity and stability are increased.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of robot positioning, in particular to a positioning and environment modeling method for an indoor robot based on UWB and multiple sensors. Background technique [0002] In the open outdoor environment, relying on the GPS positioning system can obtain more accurate positioning, but in the indoor environment, the GPS signal attenuation is serious, and the indoor environment is complex, there are various interferences and noises, and accurate positioning cannot be performed. At present, common indoor positioning technology solutions mainly include ultrasonic positioning technology, Bluetooth technology, infrared technology, radio frequency identification technology, ultra-wideband technology, wireless local area network, optical tracking and positioning technology, etc. Ultra-wideband technology UWB has the advantages of low power consumption, good anti-multipath effect, high security, low system complexity, g...
