Abstract

In view of user's requirements of high performance, easy operation and low cost with indoor location, data acquisition software based on Android platform utilize sensors built-in cellphone is used to study the pedestrian dead reckoning (PDR). Step detection and step length estimation are carried out by collecting leg swing angle while walking, and the classical step length estimation algorithm is improved. At the same time, the improved heuristic drift elimination algorithm is used to calculate the direction. Finally, the experiment results show that the PDR technology can better satisfy the requirements of indoor pedestrian positioning, and as for the low-cost multi-sensor. compared with the existing algorithm, the improved algorithm with higher positional accuracy.
