Abstract

A study on the indoor positioning system has been active recently for the location based service indoors. In the 3 dimensional positioning system based on the acoustic signal and TDOA technology, the error characteristics of the estimated source position would be changed depending on the number of microphones and the pattern of the microphone array. In this paper, the estimated position error according to the measured distance error between the microphones and the signal source is analyzed, and the optimum microphone array is decided considering the estimated position error patterns and the total amount of the estimated position error.

실내에서의 위치기반 서비스를 위한 실내 위치 인식 기술에 대한 연구가 활발하다. 음향 신호와 TDOA 기술을 기반으로 하는 3차원 위치 인식 시스템에 있어서, 마이크 센서의 개수와 배열 위치에 따라 추정된 위치의 오차 특성이 달라지므로, 본 논문에서는 마이크 센서의 배열과 측정된 거리 차이값의 오차 크기에 따른 추정 위치의 오차를 DOP로 분석하고, 그 추정 위치 오차 패턴과 추정 위치 오차값을 고려하여 최적의 마이크 배열을 결정하는 방법에 대해서 연구하였다.
