METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR INTEGRATED ALGORITHM-BASED POSITION ESTIMATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18200825 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR INTEGRATED ALGORITHM-BASED POSITION ESTIMATION

Simplified Explanation

The position estimation method described in the abstract involves switching from a UWB static domain to a UWB dynamic domain when a vehicle's startup state changes from OFF to ON, operating anchors mounted on the vehicle, and estimating the position of a tag using advanced trilateration measurement (ATM) and smart anchor positioning (SAP) algorithms with UWB pulse waves.

  • Anchors mounted on the vehicle are used to help estimate the position of a tag.
  • The method involves switching between UWB static and dynamic domains based on the vehicle's startup state.
  • The position of the tag is estimated using advanced trilateration measurement and smart anchor positioning algorithms.
  • Ultra-wideband (UWB) pulse waves are transmitted and received by the anchors and the tag.

Original Abstract Submitted

A position estimation method is performed by a position estimation apparatus, wherein the position estimation method includes switching from a UWB static domain to a UWB dynamic domain when a startup state of a vehicle is switched from OFF to ON; operating one or more anchors mounted on the vehicle; and estimating a position of a tag by performing at least one of an advanced trilateration measurement (ATM) algorithm and a smart anchor positioning (SAP) algorithm, wherein the one or more anchors and the tag transmit and receive ultra wideband (UWB) pulse waves.
