Research overview of indoor localization methods for autonomous mobile robots

摘要

Being a fundamental issue in the research of issue,indoor localization of autonomous mobile robots has been thoroughly studied. According to the difference between localization techniques and sensors indoor localization methods are classified into three categories: dead-reckoning localization,map-matching localization and beacon-based localization. The ultrasonic wave network positioning system and RFID-based localization method are interpreted in detail. Several localization algorithms based on probability are analyzed and compared,the research directions of autonomous mobile robot localization methods are prospected.
