A SOM-CNN Algorithm for NLOS Signal Identification

抄録

Aiming at the problem of non-line of sight (NLOS) signal recognition for Ultra Wide Band (UWB) positioning, we utilize the concepts of Neural Network Clustering and Neural Network Pattern Recognition. We propose a classification algorithm based on self-organizing feature mapping (SOM) neural network batch processing, and a recognition algorithm based on convolutional neural network (CNN). By assigning different weights to learning, training and testing parts in the data set of UWB location signals with given known patterns, a strong NLOS signal recognizer is trained to minimize the recognition error rate. Finally, the proposed NLOS signal recognition algorithm is verified using data sets from real scenarios. The test results show that the proposed algorithm can solve the problem of UWB NLOS signal recognition under strong signal interference. The simulation results illustrate that the proposed algorithm is significantly more effective compared with other algorithms.
