The performance of TDOA positioning based on UWB is limited by the hyperbolic characteristics of TDOA, especially for tags away from the hyperbolic asymptote. Aiming at this problem, a new UWB indoor positioning system is proposed. Firstly, TOF ranging is adopted to build the positioning equations; then the weighted centroid algorithm of four base stations is presented to compute the initial rough position of the tag; and the residual weighting is introduced to optimize the initial tag position; then, the corresponding nonlinear positioning equations, which will be algebraically transformed to one distribution function, are solved, and the optimal tag coordinates can be obtained by the Newton iteration method. Simulation experiments have verified the positioning reliability of the proposed algorithm under different noise environments and for different tag positions.

To improve the current indoor positioning algorithms, which have insufficient positioning accuracy, an ultra-wideband (UWB) positioning algorithm based on the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm with improved Kalman filtering is proposed. An alternative double-sided two-way ranging (ADS-TWR) algorithm is used to obtain the distance from the UWB tag to each base station and calculate the initial position of the tag by the least squares method. The Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm is used to correct the covariance matrix of the Kalman filter, and the improved Kalman filtering algorithm is used to filter the initial position to obtain the final position of the tag.

To address the challenges of low accuracy in indoor positioning caused by factors such as signal interference and visual distortions, this paper proposes a novel method that integrates ultra-wideband (UWB) technology with visual positioning. In the UWB positioning module, the powerful feature-extraction ability of the graph convolutional network (GCN) is used to integrate the features of adjacent positioning points and improve positioning accuracy. In the visual positioning module, the residual results learned from the bidirectional gate recurrent unit (Bi-GRU) network are compensated into the mathematical visual positioning model's solution results to improve the positioning results' continuity.
