Abstract: An apparatus and method for estimating a step length of a user are provided. The apparatus and method use a step length estimation algorithm, e.g. a step length estimation parameter coefficient, according to a movement state of a user, i.e. whether the movement state is a walking state or a running state. The movement state of the user is determined on the basis of an acceleration variance value of an acceleration signal output from an accelerometer. Accordingly, the apparatus and method prevent errors in step length determinations.

Abstract: A step detecting apparatus and method in a personal navigator where acceleration signals in at least two directions are acquired from an accelerometer sensor, as a pedestrian moves. Variances of the acceleration signals are calculated and summed. The variance sum is compared with a threshold. If the variance sum is greater than the threshold, it is determined that a detected step is a walking step. If the variance sum is less than the threshold, it is determined that the detected step is a mark-time step.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for step detection in a personal navigation system is disclosed. In the apparatus acceleration signals are obtained from an acceleration sensor in a movement direction and a gravity direction relative to a user. Sliding window summing data for the acceleration signals output from the acceleration sensor in the movement direction and the gravity direction are calculated so as to obtain a sum of the sliding window summing data. Then, a zero crossing point is detected based on differential sliding window summing data. A difference of a detection time between a present zero crossing point and a previous zero crossing point is compared with a threshold value, thereby detecting steps of the user based on the distinct signal pattern for walk. The step detection apparatus distinguishes zero crossing detection caused by chattering (e.g., vibration) of the human body from zero crossing detection caused by the step of the user, so the step detection apparatus more precisely detects the step of the user. Accordingly, it is possible to precisely detect the step of the user in a hand-held type personal navigation system, such as a portable phone or a PDA, including a micro sensor module.
