Abstract

This paper proposes an indoor positioning system based on visible light communication technology and intelligent terminals which equipped with image sensors, electronic compasses and gyroscope sensors. Each LED source is modulated with unique codes which represent its absolute location. The receiving terminal gets the LED’s absolute location through the optical link and capture the scene image with image sensor simultaneously. The electronic compass and the gyroscope sensor measure the terminal’s yaw angle, pitch angle and roll angle in real time, together with the scene image, relative position of the terminal and the LED light source can be calculated. Combine the absolute location of the LED light source with the relative position, the system is able to estimate the terminal’s position within the accuracy of about 2 centimeter. Position accuracy can be improved by using high-precision camera and attitude sensors.
