Abstract
A method for vehicular self-positioning is executed by a positioning device in a vehicle. The positioning device computes a current estimated position of the vehicle as a function of local motion data obtained from a motion sensor in the vehicle, and operates an RF module in the vehicle to receive a reference signal from one or more base stations in an environment of the vehicle, the respective base station being configured for telecommunication and being part of a 3GPP infrastructure. The positioning device further processes the reference signal to determine measured values of at least one path parameter for a selected set of multipath components, and operates a positioning algorithm, e.g. SLAM, on at least the current estimated position and the measured values to calculate a current output position of the vehicle and position information for an origin of each of the multipath components.
