This page introduced the software developed for Indoor Positioning solution developed by ACORDE in COMP4DRONES. It includes tag and anchor firmware (application and other underlying levels).

Description

The following figure shows the several software layers present on top of the HW anchor&tag devices of the ACORDE Indoor Positioning Solution (IPS) addressed.

The development of the ACORDE IPS has required actions and developments on all these layers. Some of these layers have been tackled on other project WPs:

  • BSP set up (in WP3)-15-1, which includes drivers and RTOS adaptation/configuration
  • Medium Access Control protocol (in WP5-19_ACO), where acorde has made specific innovation.

The higher software levels of the soltions have been addressed in the context of the WP4 of COMP4RDRONES.
