Abstract: An electronic device for indoor positioning includes an array antenna and a processor. The array antenna includes a plurality of antenna units. The array antenna receives a wireless signal transmitted from user equipment. Each of the antenna units receives the reception parameters of the wireless signal. The processor executes the following tasks: dividing the antenna units into a plurality of groups; combining the reception parameters of the antenna units included in each of the groups to generate a reception parameter matrix; and calculating a plurality of angles of arrival (AOA) from the UE to the plurality of the groups according to the reception parameter matrix.

Abstract: An electronic device includes an indoor positioner and a positioning engine server. The indoor positioner has an antenna array including a plurality of antenna units. The indoor positioner divides the antenna units into multiple antenna unit groups, receives a wireless signal from user equipment at each time point via the antenna unit groups, and calculates a plurality of angles of arrival (AOA) corresponding to the antenna unit groups at each time point. The positioning engine server receives and stores the angles of arrival corresponding to the antenna unit groups at each time point, and filters the angles of arrival according to the angle sizes of the angles of arrival corresponding to the antenna unit groups at each time point stored in an observation period.

Abstract: An electronic device includes an indoor positioner and a positioning engine server. The indoor positioner has an array antenna to receive a wireless signal from user equipment, and to calculate the angle of arrival (AOA) of the wireless signal according to the phase difference and the time difference. The wireless signal includes status data of the user equipment. The positioning engine server converts the angle of arrival into a set of coordinates that correspond to a position of the user equipment, and inputs the set of coordinates to an IMM module. The IMM module includes a first state module and a second state module. The IMM module calculates weighting values for the first state module and the second state module according to the status data of the user equipment, and outputs an estimated set of coordinates according to the set of coordinates and the weighting values.
