Seguimento de pessoas em ambientes interiores

Abstract

Os Serviços Baseados em Localização são definidos como sendo serviços que utilizam a localização geográfica de um terminal. O utilizadores destes serviços podem pretender obter conhecimento sobre serviços próximos ou sobre a sua própria localização ao nível da rua, cidade, coordenadas geográficas, etc. ou relativa a ou- tros utilizadores. Os sinais de satélite, e.g. os usados pelo GPS (Global Positioning System), são severamente degradados quando os terminais se encontram em ambi- entes interiores (indoor). Neste tipo de ambientes, uma das técnicas mais utilizadas é recorrer à análise do sinal das redes de comunicações sem fios já existente no local, quando não existe uma infraestrutura complementar ao sistema de localização. Ha- bitualmente, estas técnicas consistem em análise de cena por fingerprinting ou com base em modelos de propagação. Os requisitos de precisão em ambientes indoor são, geralmente, mais elevados. Caso não exista uma infraestrutura sem fios, o recurso a sensores IMU (Inertial Measurement Units) pode ser o único modo de determinar a localização de um indivíduo em ambientes interiores, desde que a posição inicial seja conhecida. A estimativa da localização com estes sensores, tem como base o comportamento corporal do utilizador ao longo da sua caminhada. Os sensores IMU permitem detetar passos humanos em certas condições e, com a orientação do utilizador, prever o seu percurso. Neste trabalho é estudada a possibilidade de implementação de um sistema de localização indoor baseado na biomecânica dos movimentos dos utilizadores.

Location Based Services (LBS) are defined as services that use the geographic localization of terminals. Users of these services may wish to know about nearby services or their own localization at a street or city level, geographical co- ordinates, etc. or related to other users. Satellite signals e.g., those used by GPS (Global Positioning System) are severely degraded when the terminals are in in- door environments. In such environments, the most common technique is to analyse the signal of the wireless communications network locally present, when there is no additional infrastructure dedicated for the localization system. Usually, these techniques consist of scene analysis by fingerprinting or using propagation models. The precision requirements in indoor environments are, usually, higher. If there is not a wireless infrastructure, the use of IMU (Inertial Measurement Units) sensors may be the only way to estimate the localization of individuals indoors, provided that the initial position is known. The estimation of localizations with these sensors is based on the user's body behavior throughout his walking. The IMU sensors can identify human steps on certain conditions and with the orientation informa- tion of the users, predict their path. In this work, the possibility of implementing an indoor tracking system based on the biomechanics of the users' motion is studied.
