26 results about "Trilateration" patented technology

True range multilateration is a method to determine the location of a movable vehicle or stationary point in space using multiple ranges (distances) between the vehicle/point and multiple spatially-separated known locations (often termed 'stations'). True range multilateration is both a mathematical topic and an applied technique used in several fields. A practical application involving a fixed location is the trilateration method of surveying. Applications involving vehicle location are termed navigation when on-board persons/equipment are informed of its location, and are termed surveillance when off-vehicle entities are informed of the vehicle's location.

NON-LINE OF VISION OBJECT DETECTION

The position of a mobile device relative to a vehicle is determined. Time-of-flight (TOF) messages exchanged between ultra-wideband (UWB) anchors and a mobile device are detected via the vehicle's UWB anchors. In response to a lack of TOF message reception from a number of UWB anchors required to perform trilateration for at least a large number of consecutive ranging rounds, the vehicle activates a radar mode to detect angle-of-arrival and distance information between the UWB anchors and the mobile device. Upon activation of the radar mode, the vehicle receives channel impulse response (CIR) data from the UWB anchors. The mobile device's position is determined based on the CIR data and the TOF messages. This mobile device position is then used for one or more vehicle applications.

A positioning and distance resolution method based on prior constraint multi-station cooperation

ActiveCN117129957BRadar systemsAlgorithm
This invention relates to a localization and range unambiguity method based on prior constraints and multi-station collaboration. Under a single-transmitter, multiple-receiver radar system, this method can achieve range unambiguity based on prior target information and simultaneously perform high-precision localization using trilateration. The method first obtains the range-Doppler echo data matrices from different receiving stations. Preliminary processing of the echo data is performed using a low threshold. In the spatial domain, the idea of ​​a one-dimensional set algorithm is used to unambiguously determine the target under prior constraints. Simultaneously, high-precision target localization is achieved using the trilateration algorithm. The positions of all potential targets within the echo data are iteratively processed to complete high-precision localization and range unambiguity determination for all targets. This method exhibits high stability, can detect and locate multiple targets, and has promising engineering application prospects.
