In this paper, we propose a position measuring system using trilateration based on the illuminance of a light-emitting diode (LED). Three LEDs are located on the ceiling of the virtual space, and each fixed coordinate is inputted to the monitoring program, and Length to the illuminance sensor is drawn through the relational expression of the length and illuminance value from the respective LED. Based on the derived length, the trilateration method is used to find object location information in virtual space. By using the least square equation to minimize the error of the length drawn to trilateration, the error is reduced to the utmost. Unlike the existing indoor positioning system using visible light communication (VLC), the proposed system does not require synchronization between the transmitter and the receiver, so the system can be configured simply.

This paper is about distance measurement in various applications using Laser characteristics(monochromaticity, diectivity, interference, brightness, coherence). There are many kinds of methods such as light wavelength, light straight, light triangulation in distance measurement that use Laser. The measurement in this paper reforms a previous triangulation. This method define two Lasers place on regular distance control from 0$^{\circ}$ to 90$^{\circ}$. They have each phase which is shined a target.

최근 GPS와 Wi-Fi가 내장된 스마트폰의 보급으로 이를 이용한 위치기반 서비스(Location-based Service)가 발전하고 있다. 하지만 위치기반 서비스들의 오차 범위는 3~4m 내외로 크기 때문에 사용자들은 더 정확한 위치를 제공하기를 바라고 있다. 본 논문에서 위치기반 서비스의 핵심기능을 담당하는 측위기술 중 흔히 사용되고 있는 삼각측량법을 활용하여 핑거프린트 방법의 측위오차를 줄일 수 있는 방안을 연구하였고 프로그램으로 구현한 후 테스트를 실시하였다. 프로그램은 Labview2010으로 구현하였고, 각각의 알고리즘을 모듈화하여 필터링 적용 전 후 및 개선효과를 비교하기 쉽도록 구성하였다. 실내 테스트는 인하대학교의 강의실에서 실시하였고 실외 테스트는 인하대학교 운동장에서 실시하였다. 테스트 결과 실내의 경우 본 논문에서 제시하는 필터링 방법을 적용하기 전의 오차가 1.02미터에서 0.83미터로 감소하였고 실외에서는 0.74미터에서 0.54미터로 오차가 감소하였다.

본 논문에서는 위치기반서비스의 핵심기능을 담당하는 측위기술 중 흔히 사용되고 있는 삼각측량법과 최소자승법을 보정한 방법을 이용하여 객체의 위치를 결정하는 알고리즘의 산포를 감소시키는 방안을 연구하였다. 두 측위 방법에서 사용되는 거리값은 모두 동일한 보정과 필터링 과정을 적용하였으며, 프로그램 구현 후 실내에서 테스트를 실시하였다. 프로그램은 LabView 2010으로 구현하였고, 각각의 알고리즘을 모듈화하여 필터링 적용 전후 및 개선효과를 비교하기 쉽도록 구성하였다. 일반적인 환경에서 실험한 결과 삼각측량이 최소자승법보다 더 좋은 정확도를 보여주었고, 필터링 과정을 거칠수록 정확도가 향상되는 것을 확인하였다.

This thesis is to proposer a new algorithm for a position measurement system using a trilateration method through visible light communication(VLC), by light emitting diode(LED). The length from each LED to the sensor is derived, and location information is found using trilateration method based on the derived length. Unlike th existing positioning system using visible light communication, the proposed positioning system is simpler and more cost effective because it does not require communication between the transmitter and the receiver.

The location measurement technique of moving worker in dangerous areas, is necessary for safety in the mines, basements, warehouses, etc. There are various measurement techniques about moving node of position in a restricted environment. Trigonometric Method, one of measurement techniques, is commonly used because of its easiness. However, errors occur frequently when measuring distance and position due to radio interference and physical disability with measuring instruments. This paper proposed a method which is more accurate and shows reduced margin of error than existing trigonometric method by recalculating distance between Anchor and moving node with various measuring instruments. By adding Anchor when calculating distance and position of moving node's estimated point, suggested technique obtains at least 41% efficiency compared to existing method.

Recently, ubiquitous computing and related technologies is more and more growing concern about. Depending on the trend, the moving object recognition and tracking research have been required in order to meet the diverse needs of the user. In the location-based services, one of the most important issues in the indoor environment is to provide location-aware services. In this paper, the effective algorithm to help estimate the position of moving objects in an indoor environment is proposed. We propose an algorithm that combined the existing trilateration measurement and the improved measurement of environmental adaptation scene analysis. The proposed indoor location estimation algorithm use the trilateration measurement when we have enough anchor in the line-of-sight environment. Otherwise that use measurement of environmental adaptation scene analysis. Consequently, the proposed algorithm has been improved the localization accuracy of a moving object as well as was able to reduce complexity of the algorithm.

In some cases of u-health services, it is important and then required to pursue the location of users in real time because users could occasionally be in the situation beyond self-regulation. Location positioning has used two such typical techniques as trilateration and fingerprinting. A trilateration technique is usually based on three resident coordinates to identify the location of the target node. Ranging that measures distances between coordinates and the node is essential for applying the trilateration technique. Users especially in u-health services could be out of reachability in any such reasons as out of propagation ranges, fault of a communication counterpart, non-existence of possible communication facility, etc. This paper proposes a real-time locating method which can improve to identify and track the location of mobile objects. The method is based on references of identified mobile nodes as well as resident coordinates even though they may be partially out of communication reachability.

In this paper, we propose a pre-processing scheme for improving indoor positioning accuracy in impulsive noise channel environments. The impulsive noise can be generated by multi-path fading effects by complicated indoor structures or interference environments, which causes an increase in demodulation error probability. The proposed pre-processing scheme is performed before a triangulation method to calculate user's position, and providing reliable input data demodulated from a received signal to the triangulation method. Therefore, we studied and proposed an adaptive threshold function for mitigation of the impulsive noise based on wavelet denoising. Through results of computer simulations for the proposed scheme, we confirmed that Bit Error Rate and Signal-to-Noise Ratio performance is improved compared to conventional schemes.
