Ultrasound-aided pedestrian dead reckoning for indoor navigation [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the first ACM international workshop on Mobile entity localization and tracking in GPS-less environments, 2008
Ad hoc solutions for tracking and providing navigation support to emergency response teams is an important and safety-critical challenge. We propose a navigation system based on a combination of foot-mounted inertial sensors and ultrasound beacons. We evaluate experimentally the performance of our dead reckoning system in different environments and for

Vision-aided indoor pedestrian dead reckoning [PDF]

open access: yes2018 IEEE International Instrumentation and Measurement Technology Conference (I2MTC), 2018
Vision-aided inertial navigation has become a very popular method for indoor navigation recently. This popularity is basically due to the development of light-weighted and low-cost Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) as well as advancement and availability of Charged-Couple-Device (CCD) cameras in public indoor areas.

An Improved Pedestrian Ttracking Method Based on Wi-Fi Fingerprinting and Pedestrian Dead Reckoning [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2020
Wi-Fi based positioning has great potential for use in indoor environments because Wi-Fi signals are near-ubiquitous in many indoor environments. With a Reference Fingerprint Map (RFM), fingerprint matching can be adopted for positioning.

Gravity-Based Methods for Heading Computation in Pedestrian Dead Reckoning [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2019
One of the common ways for solving indoor navigation is known as Pedestrian Dead Reckoning (PDR), which employs inertial and magnetic sensors typically embedded in a smartphone carried by a user.

Use of High Sensitivity GNSS Receiver Doppler Measurements for Indoor Pedestrian Dead Reckoning [PDF]

open access: yesSensors, 2013
Dead-reckoning (DR) algorithms, which use self-contained inertial sensors combined with gait analysis, have proven to be effective for pedestrian navigation purposes. In such DR systems, the primary error is often due to accumulated heading drifts.

Pedestrian Dead-Reckoning Indoor Localization Based on OS-ELM

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
Smartphone-based pedestrian dead-reckoning (PDR) has become promising in indoor localization since it locates users with a smartphone only. However, existing PDR approaches are still facing the problem of accumulated localization errors due to low-cost ...
