摘要:For indoor mobile robots, many localization systems based on wireless sensor network have been reported. Received signal strength indicator is often used for distance measurement. However, the value of received signal strength indicator always has large fluctuation because radio signal is easily influenced by environmental factors. This will bring adverse effect on the distance measurement and deteriorate the performance of robot localization. In this article, the measured data are dealt with weighted recursive filter, which can depress the measurement noise effectively. In the linearization procedure, the least square method often causes additional error because it seriously relies on anchor nodes. Therefore, a minimum residual localization algorithm based on particle swarm optimization is proposed for a mobile robot running in indoor environment. With continuous optimization and update of particle swarm, the position that gets the best solution of objective function can be adopted as the final estimated position. Experiment results show that the proposed algorithm, compared with traditional algorithms, can attain better localization accuracy and is closer to Cramer–Rao lower bound.
