| Abstract(in English) | This paper describes an embedded pedestrian navigation system composed of the Global Positioning System (GPS), Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) tag system and a self-contained navigation system. GPS receivers are widely used for navigation systems outdoors. The GPS signals, however, can be easily degraded by several conditions, and sometimes completely blocked. We therefore use three types of self-contained sensors (accelerometers, gyrosensors and magnetometers) to estimate relative displacement by analyzing human walking locomotion as a self-contained navigation system. In an indoor environment, we use RFID tags sparsely placed in key spot areas such as entrances and walkways. A RFID reader can be used to locate the position of user by detecting the ID signal from the tag. These tags obviously have limited availability and thus self-contained navigation is used to cover the environment. We propose a method of complementary compensation algorithm for the GPS/RFID location and self-contained navigation. A pedestrian navigation system is implemented and evaluated by the proposed method with an embedded wearable system. |
