AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

During the positioning and navigation control of the self-mobile device, large objects around the base station and large objects (such as buildings and tall trees) may cause communication between the satellite system, the base station and the self-mobile device to be blocked, affecting the accuracy of positioning and navigation control.

Method used

A self-mobile device is designed, equipped with an Internet communication module, a mobile station and a controller. By acquiring satellite signals and radio signals of the base station, the first ephemeris data detects the occlusion status of the device, and adjusts the travel route according to the occlusion situation.

Benefits of technology

It effectively reduces the adverse effects of positioning and navigation control caused by external object occlusion, and improves the navigation stability and operational safety of self-mobile devices.
