Abstract

Recently, navigation systems based on wireless communication have been applied to the internal structures such as building or ship. If a stable azimuth information is obtained, these systems can effectively guide the direction of the user's progress through the information and then can improve the performance of guidance. Since conventional method which has acquired an azimuth information using geomagnetic and acceleration sensor(azimuth sensor hereafter) is sensitive to the effects of the magnetic field, it has unstable error range according to the surrounding environment. In order to improve these problems, this paper presents a new relative azimuth estimation algorithm using the displacement of a mobile node and its rotation angle based on Wireless communication. For the performance assessment of the proposed algorithm, experiments using rotating arm are performed and the results are confirmed that the proposed system can estimate the relative azimuth without using additional sensors.

최근 무선통신기반 내비게이션 시스템이 건물이나 선박과 같은 구조물의 내부에 적용되고 있다. 이러한 시스템이 안정된 방위각 정보를 얻는다면 이를 통하여 사용자의 진행 방향을 효과적으로 안내 할 수 있고 그에 따른 안내 성능을 향상시킬 수 있다. 기존의 방법은 지자기 및 가속도 센서(이하 방위각센서)를 이용하여 방위각 정보를 획득하므로 이는 자계의 영향에 민감하여 주위환경에 따라 불안정한 오차 범위를 가진다. 이러한 문제점을 개선하기 위하여 본 논문에서는 무선통신기반 이동노드의 변위와 회전각을 이용하여 새로운 상대방위각 추정 알고리즘을 제안한다. 제안한 알고리즘의 성능을 평가하기 위해 회전팔을 이용한 실험을 수행하였으며 그 결과 부가적인 센서를 이용하지 않고 상대방위각을 추정할 수 있음을 확인하였다.
