Abstract

Indoor location information, which is an indispensable label for linking the vast amount of data circulating in the world of IoT, 5G, and AI, is essential. This paper proposes a novel template pattern matching-based acoustic positioning method, Location Template-based Positioning Model, for indoor acoustic source localisation. This innovative technology, similar to the passive SONAR systems on submarines, uses audible acoustic waves to locate acoustic sources in complex indoor environments. The proposed LTPM is a statistical model, and it calculates the coordinates of acoustic sources by matching input acoustic signals with template acoustic signals that are pre-collected from preset locations. A comprehensive overview of the principles and implementations of LTPM is provided, and its feasibility is verified through preliminary positioning tests in this paper. It is hoped to provide research references for the advancement of pattern matching-based acoustic indoor positioning technologies.
