Map-assisted TDOA Localization Enhancement Based On CNN
For signal processing related to localization technologies, non line of sight (NLOS) multipaths have a significant impact on the localization error level. This study proposes a localization correction method based on convolution neural network (CNN), which extracts obstacle features from maps to predict the localization errors caused by NLOS effects. A novel compensation scheme is developed and structured around the localization error in terms of distance and azimuth angle predicted by the CNN. Four prediction tasks are executed over different building distributions within the maps for typical urban scenario, resulting in CNN models with high prediction accuracy. Finally, a thorough comparison of the accuracy performance between the time difference of arrival (TDOA) localization algorithm and the results after the error compensation reveals that, generally, the CNN prediction approach demonstrates great localization error correction performance, improving TDOA accuracy by 75%. It can be observed that the powerful feature extraction capability of CNN can be exploited by processing surrounding maps to predict the localization error distribution, showing great potential for further enhancement of TDOA performance under challenging scenarios with rich multipath propagation.
