Sensing-Assisted LoS/NLoS Identification in Dynamic UAV Positioning Systems

Huijuan Qiao, Jiajing Chen, Lu Bai, Mengyuan Lu, Mingran Sun, Xiang Cheng

A dual-input fusion network identifies LoS/NLoS conditions for UAVs at up to 97.69 percent accuracy by combining RGB images with channel impulse responses.

Claims

C1strongest claim

Simulation results show that the identification accuracy can reach up to 97.69%, while achieving an improvement of at least 3.59% compared to traditional CIR-only and RGB-only methods. By utilizing the proposed LoS/NLoS identification method, the error of trilateration positioning can be reduced by approximately 70% in a crossroad scenario.

C2weakest assumption

The newly constructed multi-modal dataset accurately represents real-world urban UAV-to-ground propagation conditions across the tested altitudes and scenarios, and the dual-input network successfully bridges the heterogeneous representations of RGB images and CIR data without introducing artifacts that inflate reported accuracy.

C3one line summary

A new dual-input feature fusion network using RGB images and channel impulse responses identifies LoS/NLoS conditions for UAVs with up to 97.69% accuracy and reduces trilateration positioning error by about 70%.
