Abstract

In view of the defects and shortcomings of traditional Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) robots in the localization mode and working scene, this paper studies the tightly-coupled integrated localization strategy based on inertial navigation system (INS) with ultra wide band (UWB). This paper presents an interactive multi-model (IMM) to solve the influence of non-line-of-sight (NLOS) on positioning accuracy. In IMM framework, two parallel Kalman filter (KF) models are used to filter the measured distance simultaneously, and then IMM distance is obtained by weighted fusion of two KF filtering results. This paper adopts the tightly-coupled combined method, and performs indoor positioning by extending Kalman filter (EKF). Experiments show that the method can effectively suppress the influence of NLOS error and improve the localization accuracy.
