An Indoor Mobile Localization Strategy for Robot in NLOS Environment

الملخص EN

This paper deals with the problem of localization of mobile robot in indoor environment with mixed line-of-sight/nonline-of-sight (LOS/NLOS) conditions.

To reduce the NLOS errors, a prior knowledge-based correction strategy (PKCS) is proposed to locate the robot.

This strategy consists of two steps: NLOS identification and mitigation.

We propose an NLOS identification method by applying the statistical theory.

Then we correct the NLOS errors by subtracting the expected NLOS errors.

Finally, the residual weighting algorithm is employed to estimate the location of the robot.

Simulation results show that the proposed strategy significantly improves the accuracy of localization in mixed LOS/NLOS indoor environment.
