10 Initial Positioning Results Test Region 2011 Min Offset NGI 59m G n = GPS Positions D n = DAB Positions = Offset Max Offset 288m
11 Pedestrian Navigation Pedestrian navigation Challenging Walk indoors for long periods of time Prefer 2011 not to install dedicated infrastructure NGI Real-time Inertial navigation Accelerometers (and gyros) on smart phones Cheap = low quality = high position drift Foot mounted sensors promising Integration Need constant updates from other sensors Use GPS when available Other sensors?
12 Integrated Indoor Positioning Infrastructured Use of GNSS with WiFi, RFID, Bluetooth, UWB, etc Dedicated 2011 infrastructure or NGI a priori building information or Ad-hoc networks, drop units or. Signals of opportunity Infrastructureless Use of DR and INS low cost, independent

14 2011 Indoor Navigation NGI using Smartphones Professor Terry Moore Professor of Satellite Navigation Nottingham Geospatial Institute The University of Nottingham
15 Indoor Positioning Background Indoor navigation requirements: Inexpensive Don t want to install dedicated infrastructure High 2011 accuracy (~1m) NGI Ubiquitous Make use of existing technology Smartphones already have technology that can be used for positioning: GPS, Wi-Fi, Mobile network, Bluetooth, Camera, Internet link Wi-Fi already widely used for positioning E.g. Skyhook, Google, Apple
16 Smartphone Sensors GPS Microphone Ambient Wi-Fi light sensor 3G/GPRS Bluetooth Proximity sensor 3-axis accelerometer 3-axis gyro FM radio 3-axis magnetometer Camera
17 Current Positioning Methods GPS Microphone Ambient Wi-Fi light sensor 3G/GPRS Bluetooth Proximity sensor 3-axis accelerometer 3-axis gyro FM radio 3-axis magnetometer Camera
18 Current Positioning Methods Cell-ID Wi-Fi GPS 200m
19 Wi-Fi Fingerprinting GPS Microphone Ambient Wi-Fi light sensor 3G/GPRS Bluetooth Proximity sensor 3-axis accelerometer 3-axis gyro FM radio 3-axis magnetometer Camera
20 Wi-Fi Fingerprinting Makes use of existing Wi-Fi access points Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) RSSI varies spatially Compare 2011 RSSIs from multiple Access Points NGI (APs) to database Don t need to know position of APs Works well inside buildings Typically achieve ~5m accuracy or better with particle filter Survey must record: Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) Position
21 Wi-Fi Fingerprinting How do we record position to build the database? Traditional survey methods time consuming Use map to identify location takes time & prone to error Difficult 2011 to apply over large areas NGI How do we keep the database up-to-date? APs may change (add/replace/remove) Building can change (e.g. remove walls) Furniture can be moved Commercial systems require regular re-survey Proposal Use high accuracy indoor positioning system from NGI Aim to use non-dedicated users to build database e.g. security guards or hospital porters
22 Wi-Fi Fingerprinting Measure signal strengths to all Access Points in view Match measured signal strengths to database Requires database of: Location signal strengths to all Access Points (APs) in view 1.Position, ID1, SS1, ID2, SS2, ID3, SS3,... 2.Position, ID1, SS1, ID2, SS2, ID3, SS3,... 3.Position, ID1, SS1, ID2, SS2, ID3, SS3,... Signal strengths Position 4.Position, ID1, SS1, ID2, SS2, ID3, SS3,
23 WiFi Data Collection Data collected on ground floor of Nottingham Geospatial Building HP laptop 2011 with Wi-Fi NGI Netstumbler for Wi-Fi data collection Foot mounted IMU Microstrain 3DM-GX3 USB comms and power Outputs NMEA data Basic Wi-Fi fingerprinting software developed at NGI
24 WiFi Data Collection Using Foot-mounted IMU Survey Fingerprint trial
25 Signal Strength for one AP Signal strength to AP 00:23:33:16:3C:90 >-40dB -40 to - 50dB -50 to - 60dB -60 to - 70dB
26 Basic Wi-Fi fingerprinting
27 Wi-Fi Fingerprinting Works better indoors where walls/ceilings/furniture will attenuate signals the most Accuracy comes from signal strength varying spatially Advanced 2011 algorithms NGI Particle filtering How do we build databases? Skyhook use fleet of vehicles with GPS (tribe sourcing) Google use crowd sourcing(?) But what about inside where GPS isn t effcetive? Slow database generation using building plans Scalability? How do we keep the database up-to-date? Maintain database using non-dedicated people First responders could build database which others use
28 Inertial Navigation GPS Microphone Ambient Wi-Fi light sensor 3G/GPRS Bluetooth Proximity sensor 3-axis accelerometer 3-axis gyro FM radio 3-axis magnetometer Camera
29 Inertial Navigation 3 gyros and 3 accelerometers Orientation from integrating gyros Displacement from rotating measurements to Earth frame (using gyros), removing gravity and double 2011 integrating accelerometers NGI Not very accurate! MEMS getting better Cheaper (higher volumes e.g. Wii, smartphones) Better manufacturing Calibration Successful results usually from Good sensors Integration with GPS, magnetometers, zero velocity, Step detection algorithms
30 Inertial Navigation Typically suggested for indoor navigation but... Cheap = low quality = large position drift Even navigation grade ~2km/hr Foot mounted sensors promising (not convenient) Accelerometers and gyros now on smart phones Integration Need constant updates from other sensors GPS when available Other sensors? Use Microstrain 3DM-GX3-25 for these examples
