ACCURATE INDOOR POSITION ESTIMATION BY SWIFT-COMMUNICATION RANGE RECOGNITION (S-CRR) METHOD IN RF COMMUNICATION SYSTEMS

AIM: This project aim is to locate and recognize a particular location or a point in small areas like rooms, labs, industries etc., using Cartesian coordinate system. EXPLANATION: In villages or towns to locate a particular place, we have GPS. Using GPS we can navigate to any point in the world or even if we design a robot to navigate itself to a particular point, But even GPS can locate a point with a variation of 30 meters only. That is why it is not suitable for indoor applications. This is in the case of outside world but how can a robot can move in the indoor scenario, GPS wont help here. So, how can a robot locates a particular position in a room. So here is the solution. Two reference points are selected which are located at 900 angle. Two transrecieving sections are placed here taking these two points are the end points of the X and Y co-ordinate system and mid point of the room as origin. Now we can move the robot to particular point as we want. Robot consists of rf transreceiving section which coomunicates with the other two reference transreciving sections which are at a diatance of 10 meters each and also with pc with rf section. Once we transmit the location say (3,5) through pc to the robot. Robot first communicates with the east side reference. Thus it calculates the distance between them say 10 mts. Now it communicates with north side kit say diastance between them is 10 mts. The robot moves towards east until the distance between them is 7 mts so that 10 - 7=3, now the robot

moves towards north until the distance between it and north reference is 5 mts so that 10-5=5. Thus it moves to the specified point.

OBJECTIVE: To design a robot to navigate any particular location or a point in indoor environment like room. Applications: 1. Physically handicapped people uses electronic wheel chairs they used to press the directional keys until they reach the point. But by using this simply they can feed the values once and they they navigate to that point. 2. Indoor robots design made easy, because some robots identify the the places either by using digital image comparison or by travelling on guided lines this proposed system make the two of those methods vanish. 3. In industries foreman are used to pick and place the item because such places are not suitable for machines because machines cannot identify the places in such cases this sytem is much useful and also portable.
