In the current indoor positioning technology, a positioning scheme based on a linear frequency modulation continuous wave signal (LFMCW) system has a strong multipath effect resistance, high positioning accuracy and strong indoor penetration capability due to the fact that signals of the positioning scheme have large bandwidth of hundreds of megameters, and therefore the positioning scheme has a wide application prospect.
Most of the existing positioning schemes based on the LFMCW system are based on a ranging algorithm, a transmitting signal and a receiving signal are subjected to beat processing by utilizing the characteristic that the frequency of an LFMCW signal changes linearly along with time, a difference frequency item is extracted to further calculate the distance between a positioning label and a transmitting base station, and finally the position of the label to be positioned is determined by adopting a hyperbolic positioning algorithm or a circular positioning algorithm.

And obtaining the distance difference from the signal transmitting base station to the tag through the frequency difference of the received signals of the base stations. The structure of transmitting LFMCW signals to the tag through two base stations each time and calculating the frequency difference requires strict synchronization between the base stations to ensure the real-time performance and high precision of indoor positioning.
Chinese patent publication No. CN103558598A discloses that positioning is achieved by A, B two devices sending LFMCW signals to each other and then extracting the frequency difference between the transmitted signal and the received signal to calculate the distance between A, B. In the scheme, A, B two devices respectively transmit LFMCW signals, timing devices at the transmitting end and the receiving end are difficult to maintain consistency due to the existence of time difference of crystal oscillator sources, and if the crystal oscillator sources with ultra-high precision are adopted, the price is very high, so that the implementation performance of the whole scheme is poor.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide a positioning system and a positioning method of linear frequency modulation continuous waves based on label difference frequency forwarding, so as to solve the problem of poor real-time performance caused by the fact that a base station, a main control module and labels cannot be accurately and synchronously controlled in the prior positioning technology.
The invention is realized by the following technical scheme: the positioning system of the linear frequency modulation continuous wave based on label difference frequency forwarding comprises a main control module, M base stations and N labels to be positioned, wherein M is a natural number not less than 3, M base stations are not collinear and have known positions, and N is a natural number not less than 1; the main control module is used for generating LFMCW signals and reference signals of the whole system, transmitting the LFMCW signals and the reference signals to the base station, receiving and processing forwarding signals from the base station, and resolving the position information of the label to be positioned according to the processed forwarding signals; the base station is used for receiving the LFMCW signal and the reference signal transmitted by the main control module, processing the LFMCW signal, transmitting the processed LFMCW signal to the label to be positioned, receiving and processing a forwarding signal from the label to be positioned, and transmitting the processed forwarding signal to the main control module; the base station performs frequency mixing processing when processing both LFMCW signals and forwarding signals, and the reference signal is used as a reference source when a local oscillator signal used in the frequency mixing processing is generated; the label to be positioned is used for receiving and transmitting LFMCW signals from the base station by difference frequency.
The ideal indoor positioning scheme not only needs to meet the characteristics of high precision and wide range, but also needs to have the requirements of real-time performance, high stability, low cost and easy implementation. In a positioning scheme in the prior art, for example, patent CN104133191A discloses a self-heterodyne receiving tag, which obtains a distance difference from a signal transmitting base station to the tag through a frequency difference of received base station signals, but in a structure that LFMCW signals are transmitted to the tag through two base stations each time and the frequency difference is calculated, strict synchronization between the base stations is required to ensure real-time performance and high-precision requirements of indoor positioning; patent CN103558598A discloses that positioning is achieved by sending LFMCW signals to each other by A, B two devices, and then extracting the frequency difference between the transmitted signal and the received signal to calculate the distance between A, B, in this scheme, A, B two devices each transmit LFMCW signals, because there is a time difference between the crystal oscillator sources, it is difficult to maintain consistency between the timing devices at the transmitting end and the receiving end, and if the crystal oscillator sources with ultra-high precision are adopted as mentioned in this scheme, the price is very expensive, resulting in poor implementation of the whole scheme. Therefore, the positioning scheme in the prior art has the problem of poor real-time performance caused by the fact that the base station, the main control module and the labels cannot be accurately and synchronously controlled, and the implementation performance of the scheme is poor due to the fact that the system cost is increased in order to improve the accuracy.
In order to solve the problems in the prior art, the invention provides a positioning system of a linear frequency modulation continuous wave based on label difference frequency forwarding. The positioning system comprises a main control module, M base stations and N labels to be positioned, wherein M is a natural number not less than 3, the M base stations are not collinear and have known positions, N is a natural number not less than 1, namely the number of the base stations is at least 3, and the number of the labels to be positioned is at least 1. Preferably, the number of the base stations can be set to be more than 4 in consideration of the redundancy of the system and the signal shielding of the tag to be positioned, namely M is more than or equal to 4. When the device is used, the main control module firstly generates a reference signal, the reference signal is used as a reference source to generate an LFMCW signal, then the reference signal and the LFMCW signal are sent to M base stations, the M base stations process the LFMCW signal after receiving the reference signal and the LFMCW signal and send the LFMCW signal to a label to be positioned, the label to be positioned receives the signal from each base station and processes the signal and transmits the signal back to each base station, each base station receives a forwarding signal from the label to be positioned and then processes the signal and transmits the signal to the main control module, and the main control module receives the forwarding signal returned by each base station and performs beat deskew, frequency conversion and resolving to obtain the position information of the label to be positioned.
After receiving and processing the signals from each base station, the label to be positioned forwards the signals to each base station, and the label to be positioned is essentially a difference frequency repeater, so that synchronous control with each base station is not needed. Meanwhile, the LFMCW signal and the reference signal generated by the main control module are both from the clock source in the main control module, i.e. the main control module and each base station only adopt one clock source, forming a coherent system, and therefore, synchronous control between each base station is not required. Through the arrangement, accurate synchronous control among the main control module, the base station and the label to be positioned can be realized, the cost is low, and the implementation of the positioning scheme is good.
In the technical scheme, the reference signal and the LFMCW signal generated by the main control module adopt the same clock source in the main control module to form a coherent system, and the random frequency deviation influencing the positioning precision of the system is avoided, so that synchronous control among base stations is not needed; the label to be positioned is not required to be provided with a clock source, and is essentially a differential frequency repeater, so that synchronous control with a base station is not required. Through the arrangement, the positioning system with high synchronization rate and low cost can be established by combining the characteristic that the frequency of the LFMCW signal changes linearly along with time.
Further, the label to be positioned comprises a differential rotation module, a communication module B and a power supply module; the difference conversion module is used for receiving the LFMCW signal from the base station, mixing the LFMCW signal and transmitting the mixed LFMCW signal to the base station, so that difference frequency is generated between the frequency of the signal received and transmitted to the base station; the communication module B is used for communicating with the main control module, and the main control module can schedule the label to be positioned; the power module is used for supplying power for the differential conversion module, and the power module further comprises a control module which is connected with the communication module B and used for receiving and returning instructions of the main control module. In the scheme, the difference conversion module is used for generating difference frequency between the frequencies received and transmitted to the base stations and transmitting the signals generating the difference frequency to each base station. The communication module B is used for communicating with the main control module, so that the main control module can schedule the label to be positioned, and the label to be positioned can receive the scheduling from the main control module; the power module is divided into a power supply part and a control module part, wherein the control module is connected with the communication module B, so that the power module can provide a controllable power supply for the differential conversion module. Before positioning begins, after a communication module B receives a positioning instruction from a main control module, a power supply module is started to supply power to a label to be positioned, and the label to be positioned is ready to be forwarded; after positioning is completed, the main control module sends an ending instruction to the communication module B of the tag to be positioned, and the tag to be positioned turns off the power supply module after receiving the instruction. Through the arrangement, the purpose of reducing the operation cost of the positioning system can be further achieved.
Further, the difference conversion module comprises an antenna B1, a band-pass filter D1, a low noise amplifier B, a mixer C, a band-pass filter D2, a power amplifier C and an antenna B2 which are connected in sequence, and the mixer C is connected with a frequency synthesizer C. In this scheme, antenna B1 is used to receive signals from each base station, and antenna B2 forwards LFMCW signals to the base stations. Preferably, the tag to be positioned can increase the positioning range of the system by increasing the transmission power. The band-pass filter D1 and the band-pass filter D2 are used for filtering signals, and the tag to be positioned can obtain good receiving and transmitting isolation degree through the band-pass filters connected with the two antennas, so that the good receiving and transmitting isolation degree can be obtained. The frequency synthesizer is a frequency synthesizer, and the frequency synthesizer C is a local oscillator of the label to be positioned and is used for generating local oscillation signals required by the frequency mixer C. The signal flow direction is as follows: after receiving the LFMCW signal from the base station, the antenna B1 is filtered by the band pass filter D1 and amplified by the low noise amplifier B, then the difference frequency is performed by the mixer C, and then the difference frequency is filtered by the band pass filter D2 and amplified by the power amplifier C, and finally the signal is forwarded by the antenna B2. Therefore, the difference conversion module does not add a clock source, and only forwards the signal from the base station to the base station after the signal difference frequency processing. The frequency synthesizer C of the label to be positioned has a certain random deviation relative to the main control module and the base station, but the hyperbolic positioning method of distance difference is adopted to eliminate the random deviation when the distance difference is measured between every two base stations, so that the positioning precision of the positioning system is not influenced.
Furthermore, the main control module comprises a clock source, a communication module a, a digital signal processing module, a frequency synthesizer A, LFMCW generation module and a synthesizer/distributor which are connected in sequence, wherein the output end of the synthesizer/distributor is simultaneously connected with at least M band-pass filters a, and the clock source is connected with the digital signal processing module and the frequency synthesizer a; the main control module further comprises at least M signal receiving units, each signal receiving unit comprises an A/D module A, a power amplifier A, a low-pass filter A, a frequency mixer A and a band-pass filter B which are sequentially connected, and the A/D module A is connected with the digital signal processing module; the frequency synthesizer A is also simultaneously connected with the synthesizer/distributor and the mixers A of all the signal receiving units; and the output end of the band-pass filter A and the input end of the band-pass filter B are connected with the base station. The frequency synthesizer A can generate a signal with stable frequency to serve as a coherent reference signal of the whole system, and the LFMCW generation module generates an LFMCW signal; the synthesis/distributor firstly synthesizes the reference signal and the LFMCW signal into a path of signal and then redistributes the signal into M paths of signals leading to M base stations; the band-pass filter A and the band-pass filter B can filter the signals to obtain signals of a required frequency band; the mixer A carries out down-conversion processing on a signal transmitted back by the base station; the power amplifier A amplifies the signal; the A/D module A samples and converts the signal into a digital signal; the digital signal processing module has the functions of digital signal processing and scheduling control for controlling the whole system; the communication module A is responsible for communication with the label to be positioned; the A/D module A and the communication module A are respectively connected with the digital signal processing module, and the communication module A is used for communicating with the label to be positioned to realize the scheduling function.
When the main control module initiates a positioning process, the generated and output signal flow direction is as follows in sequence: digital signal processing module, communication module A, frequency synthesizer A, LFMCW generation module, synthesizer/distributor 1, band-pass filter A, base station. Specifically, firstly, a digital signal processing module in a main control module informs a tag to be positioned of readiness through a communication module a, then the digital signal processing module controls a frequency synthesizer a to generate a reference frequency source signal, namely a reference signal, then controls an LFMCW generation module to generate an LFMCW signal by taking the reference signal as a reference source, then synthesizes the LFMCW signal and the reference signal into one path of signal through a synthesis/distributor, redistributes the signal into M paths of signals leading to M base stations, and transmits the signals to the M base stations after being filtered by band pass filters a of the paths.
The main control module receives and processes input signals of each base station, and the signal flow direction of the main control module is as follows in sequence: the base station, the band-pass filter B, the mixer A, the low-pass filter A, the power amplifier A, A/D module A and the digital signal processing module. After M processed signals in the base station are input to the main control module, the signals are firstly converted to lower frequency through the frequency mixers A of all paths to reduce the sampling rate required by the conversion of the A/D module A, then the signals are sent to the A/D module A to be converted into digital signals after being filtered by the low-pass filter A and amplified by the power amplifier A, and the digital signals are processed and resolved by the digital signal processing module to finally obtain the position information of the label to be positioned.
Further, each base station has the same internal structure, and the base station comprises a band-pass filter C2, a mixer B1, a band-pass filter C3, a power divider B, a power amplifier B1 and an antenna A1 which are connected in sequence; the base station further comprises a power amplifier B3, a band-pass filter C6, a mixer B3, a band-pass filter C5, a mixer B2, a low-noise amplifier A, a band-pass filter C4 and an antenna A2 which are connected in sequence, and the power divider B is connected with the mixer B2; the base station also comprises a band-pass filter C1, wherein the band-pass filter C1 is connected with a frequency synthesizer B, and the frequency synthesizer B is connected with a mixer B1 and a mixer B3. The M base stations all have the same internal structure, namely, the modules of each base station have the same connection relation. The antenna A1 is used for transmitting LFMCW signals of a certain frequency band, the antenna A2 is connected with the band-pass filter C4 and is used for receiving LFMCW signals which are forwarded by the difference frequency of the tag to be positioned and have another frequency band different from the transmitting frequency band, so that the system has good transmitting and receiving isolation, and preferably, the base station can increase the positioning range of the system by increasing the transmitting power. In the prior art, for example, in the positioning method disclosed in CN10413319A, the local oscillator signal is provided by amplifying the radio frequency signal received through the antenna, so the dynamic range of the local oscillator signal is relatively large, and when the signal power is small, it is difficult to ensure stable operation of the mixer. The band-pass filter C1 of the base station is connected with the frequency synthesizer B, and is used for filtering out a reference signal from a signal from the main control module, the reference signal is used as a reference source of a signal generated by the frequency synthesizer B, the frequency synthesizer B is used for generating a stable signal as a first local oscillation signal of the mixer B1, and the frequency synthesizer B also generates another second local oscillation signal as a mixer B3, so that the stable operation of each mixer can be ensured. The band-pass filter C2 is used to filter the LFMCW signal from the main control module, then the signal is up-converted in the mixer B1, filtered by the band-pass filter C3, and then divided into two paths by the power divider B, one path of signal is amplified by the power amplifier B1 and transmitted through the antenna a1, and the other path of signal is used as the local oscillator input signal of the mixer B2 of the receiving part of the base station. And the antenna A2 is connected with the band-pass filter C4 and is used for receiving the LFMCW signal of the other frequency band forwarded by the label to be positioned. And the mixer B2 is connected with the band-pass filter C5 and is used for deskewing the LFMCW signal forwarded by the tag to be positioned and the LFMCW signal beat originally transmitted by the base station. The mixer B3 is connected to a band pass filter C6 for down converting the beat signal for transmission back to the master control module.
Specifically, the signal flow of the base station transmitting signal is: the band-pass filter C1 and the band-pass filter C2 respectively filter out a reference signal and an LFMCW signal in a synthesized signal from the main control module, the frequency synthesizer B generates a first local oscillator signal and a second local oscillator signal by taking the reference signal as a frequency reference, the LFMCW signal and the first local oscillator signal enter a frequency mixer B1 for frequency conversion processing, then the LFMCW signal and the first local oscillator signal are filtered by the band-pass filter C3, amplified by a power amplifier B1, and finally transmitted to a positioning area through an antenna A1.
The signal flow direction forwarded by the base station receiving the label to be positioned is as follows: an LFMCW signal of a forwarding frequency band of a tag to be positioned is received by an antenna A2 and a band-pass filter C4, the LFMCW signal passes through a low-noise amplifier A, then beat and deskew processing is carried out on the LFMCW signal in a mixer B2, the LFMCW signal is subjected to frequency conversion in a mixer B3 and filtering in a band-pass filter C6 after being filtered by a band-pass filter C5 and amplified by a power amplifier B2, and finally the LFMCW signal is transmitted back to the main control module through a power amplifier B3.
Further, the reference signal is a single frequency signal, and the frequency of the reference signal is not included in the frequency range of the LFMCW signal. The purpose of the above arrangement is that after the signal is transmitted to the base station, the filtering separation can be performed by using the band-pass filters of different pass band ranges of different base stations.
Further, the starting frequencies of the signals transmitted to the tag to be positioned by different base stations are different. In the existing indoor positioning scheme based on frequency modulation continuous waves, devices for receiving and transmitting LFMCW signals, such as tags to be positioned and base stations, do not distinguish receiving frequency bands, and most devices select one frequency band, such as a 2.4G frequency band, for transmission, so that good receiving and transmitting isolation cannot be guaranteed. In order to solve the above problems, in the positioning system, the starting frequencies of signals transmitted to the tag to be positioned by different base stations are different, that is, when the LFMCW signal output by the band pass filter C2 is up-converted, the frequency synthesizer B generates different first local oscillation signals for the mixer B1 according to different base stations, so that the LFMCW signal transmitted to the tag to be positioned by each base station has a certain starting frequency difference, and thus, when the signal transmitted back by the tag to be positioned by each base station and the original transmission signal are subjected to beat deskew, the band pass filter C5 is used to distinguish whether the forwarded signal is transmitted to the tag to be positioned by the base station, thereby preventing signals from other base stations forwarded by the tag to be positioned from reaching the base station and forming mutual interference between the base stations.
Furthermore, signals are transmitted between the main control module and the base station through a television cable. The closed circuit television cable is adopted to realize the signal transmission between the main control module and the base station, so that the anti-interference performance of the system signal transmission is enhanced, the realization cost is low, and the cost performance of the whole indoor positioning system is improved. Specifically, after a reference signal generated in the main control module and a synthesized signal of the LFMCW are distributed into M paths by a synthesizer/distributor, the M paths are filtered by band-pass filters a of the respective paths, and are transmitted to M base stations through M paths of closed-circuit television cables, and meanwhile, the main control module also receives signals from the respective base stations through the closed-circuit television cables; in the base station, the base station can receive the synthesized signal from the main control module through a television cable, and simultaneously, the intermediate frequency signal of the signal which is subjected to beat deskew and frequency conversion in the base station to a television frequency band can be input to the main control module through the television cable.
