融合Wi-Fi、LiDAR与IMU,用扩展卡尔曼滤波提升室内定位精度与稳定性。
EKF-Based Fusion of Wi-Fi/LiDAR/IMU for Indoor Localization and Navigation

- 基于EKF融合多传感器数据,协同抑制噪声与漂移
- 2D定位误差稳定在0.2449~0.3781米,显著优于单一方法
- 适合高精度室内导航场景,如智能建筑与机器人应用
传统基于无线信号强度(RSSI)的指纹定位精度不足,而基于光探测与测距(LiDAR)的方法虽性能更优但部署成本高。为此,本文提出一种融合Wi-Fi RSSI指纹、基于Gmapping的LiDAR-SLAM和惯性测量单元(IMU)的室内定位导航框架,采用扩展卡尔曼滤波(EKF)进行多源信息融合。首先通过深度神经网络(DNN)实现粗略的Wi-Fi指纹定位,再利用IMU动态定位与SLAM生成占用栅格地图并输出高频姿态估计,最后通过EKF预测-更新过程整合传感器信息,有效抑制Wi-Fi噪声与IMU漂移。在西交利物浦大学IR楼的多组真实场景实验表明,该框架在各类路径下均保持稳定,二维(2D)平均误差为0.2449~0.3781米;相比之下,仅用Wi-Fi指纹定位的平均误差高达1.3404米(信号干扰严重区),而纯LiDAR/IMU方案误差为0.6233~2.8803米,受累积漂移影响明显。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
Conventional Wi-Fi received signal strength indicator (RSSI) fingerprinting cannot meet the growing demand for accurate indoor localization and navigation due to its lower accuracy, while solutions based on light detection and ranging (LiDAR) can provide better localization performance but is limited by their higher deployment cost and complexity. To address these issues, we propose a novel indoor localization and navigation framework integrating Wi-Fi RSSI fingerprinting, LiDAR-based simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), and inertial measurement unit (IMU) navigation based on an extended Kalman filter (EKF). Specifically, coarse localization by deep neural network (DNN)-based Wi-Fi RSSI fingerprinting is refined by IMU-based dynamic positioning using a Gmapping-based SLAM to generate an occupancy grid map and output high-frequency attitude estimates, which is followed by EKF prediction-update integrating sensor information while effectively suppressing Wi-Fi-induced noise and IMU drift errors. Multi-group real-world experiments conducted on the IR building at Xi'an Jiaotong-Liverpool University demonstrates that the proposed multi-sensor fusion framework suppresses the instability caused by individual approaches and thereby provides stable accuracy across all path configurations with mean two-dimensional (2D) errors ranging from 0.2449 m to 0.3781 m. In contrast, the mean 2D errors of Wi-Fi RSSI fingerprinting reach up to 1.3404 m in areas with severe signal interference, and those of LiDAR/IMU localization are between 0.6233 m and 2.8803 m due to cumulative drift.
