Map-matching algorithm based on road network topological information and priori-knowledge

Based on maximum likeness estimation,a unified math model of map-matching algorithm is presented.Then,2-D map-matching algorithm based on normal distribution is given,and its disadvantages are discussed.Based on aforementioned research,through extending 2-D to multi-dimension,by using topological information of road network and priori-knowledge,an improved map-matching algorithm is obtained.In this algorithm,priori-knowledge is represented using cost function or likeness function.Therefore,the presented map-matching algorithm can be combined into the unified map-matching mathematic model.Many vehicle navigation tests in Hong Kong are done for parameter correction and model improvement.In the end,a vehicle-positioning test with different areas in Hong Kong is given.A conclusion can be drawn that,through integrating kinds of information like GPS(global positioning system),dead reckoning(DR),road network information,the algorithm proposed can give satisfactory positioning performance in large-scale dense road network and area with many high building around.
