摘要：In view of the fact that indoor positioning systems are usually affected by non-Gaussian noise in complex indoor environments, this paper tests the data in the actual scene and analyzes the distribution characteristics of noise, and proposes a new indoor positioning algorithm based on maximum correntropy unscented information filter (MCUIF). The proposed indoor positioning algorithm includes three steps: First, the estimation of the state matrix and the corresponding covariance matrix are predicted through the unscented transformation (UT). Second, the observed information is reconstructed by using a nonlinear regression method on the basis of the maximum correntropy criterion (MCC). Third, the contribution of information vector is gained by non-Gaussian measurement and the predicted information vector is corrected by the contribution of information vector. Finally, the gain of information filtering is got by the information entropy state matrix and the information entropy measurement matrix to calculate the position coordinates of the unknown nodes. This algorithm enhances the robustness of the MCUIF to non-Gaussian noise in complex indoor environments. The results from the indoor positioning experiments show that MCUIF is better than the traditional methods in state estimation and position location of the unknown nodes.
