Impact of Camera Parameters on the OCC based Indoor Positioning System

摘要

We investigate the effect of camera parameters on the performance of an image sensor or camera based indoor visible light positioning (VLP)system. In this paper, we use 6 light emitting diodes (LEDs)mounted on the ceiling and a camera based receiver for localization and estimate the location using the view angles between LEDs in the image plane. We show that, the accuracy of localization using camera can be affected by the camera parameters such as the lens distortion and the resolution of the image sensor. We also investigate the effect of field of view (FOV)of the camera on the positioning errors for the proposed VLP system.
