Patent number: 10420059Abstract: A method and a device for high-precision position determination of a mobile device by means of wireless communication, wherein wireless communication is established between at least one first antenna of a calibration device and a second antenna of a mobile device when the antennae are in proximity to one another, to transmit position data to the mobile device. A housing section of the mobile device is fixed in a reference position relative to the calibration device using a position-fixing element, and in that the position data for the reference position, as the current position of the housing section of the mobile device, are transmitted via the wireless communication between the at least one first antenna, and the second antenna, and in that an inertial navigation unit is calibrated with respect to the current position.Type: GrantFiled: December 8, 2016Date of Patent: September 17, 2019Assignee: SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC INDUSTRIES SASInventor: Marcus Zinn
