High precision positioning of UWB (ultra-wideband) in NLOS (non-line-of-sight) environment is one of the hot issues in the direction of indoor positioning. In this paper, a method of using a complementary Kalman filter (CKF) to fuse and filter UWB and IMU (inertial measurement unit) data and track the errors of variables such as position, speed, and direction is presented. Based on the uncertainty of magnetometer and acceleration, the noise covariance matrix of magnetometer and accelerometer is calculated dynamically, and then the weight of magnetometer data is set adaptively to correct the directional error of gyroscope. Based on the uncertainty of UWB distance observations, the covariance matrix of UWB measurement noise is calculated dynamically, and then the weight of UWB data observations is set adaptively to correct the position error. The position, velocity and direction errors are corrected by the fusion of UWB and IMU. The experimental results show that the algorithm can reduce the gyroscope deviation with magnetic noise and motion noise, so that the orientation estimates can be improved, as well as the positioning accuracy can be increased with UWB ranging noise.

Abstract In recent days Internet of Things (IoT) applications becoming prominent, like smart home, connected health, smart farming, smart retail and smart manufacturing, will lead to a challenging task in providing low cost, high precision localization and tracking in indoor environments. Positioning in indoor is yet an open issue mostly because of not receiving the signals of GPS in the context of indoor. Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) can give an exact indoor tracking, however, they regularly experience the cumulated error as the speed and position are gotten by incorporating the increasing acceleration constantly as for time. At the same time Ultra Wideband (UWB) localization and tracking will be influenced by the real time indoor conditions. It is difficult to utilize an independent localization and tracking system to accomplish high precision in indoor conditions. In this paper, we come up with an incorporated positioning system in indoor by joining IMU and the UWB over the Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) and the Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) to enhance the precision. All these algorithms are analyzed and assessed dependent on their exhibition.

There are several methods which can be used to locate an object or people in an indoor location. Ultra-wideband (UWB) is a specifically promising indoor positioning technology because of its high accuracy, resistance to interference, and better penetration. This study aims to improve the accuracy of the UWB sensor-based indoor positioning system. To achieve that, the proposed system is trained by using the K-means algorithm with an additional average silhouette method. This helps us to define the optimal number of clusters to be used by the K-means algorithm based on the value of the silhouette coefficient. Fuzzy c-means and mean shift algorithms are added for comparison purposes. This paper also introduces the impact of the Kalman filter while using the measured UWB test points as an input for the Kalman filter in order to obtain a better estimation of the position. As a result, the average localization error is reduced by 43.26% (from 16.3442 cm to 9.2745 cm) when combining the K-means algorithm with the Kalman filter in which the Kalman-filtered UWB-measured test points are used as an input for the proposed system.
