Abstract
As a result of the ongoing upgrading of the manufacturing industries, higher and higher requirements are being proposed for assembly precision. In particular, in the industries that involve assembly of large-sized products, it is hoped that assembly accuracy can still be guaranteed as the product size increases. The emergence of the indoor Global Positioning System (iGPS) will enable this demand to be met. In this work, we have conducted in-depth research on the measurement principles and the dynamic measurement performance of the iGPS measurement system. In addition, based on the motion equation for the tracked target, an analytical method to calculate the compensation amount required for dynamic measurements is proposed. This method is suitable for accurate measurement of the actual trajectory of a target in real time when the theoretical trajectory of this tracked target is known. We set up a simulation environment in MATLAB and tested the proposed method. The simulation testing proved that the method can compensate effectively for errors in iGPS dynamic measurement.Keywords
