Vehicle localization using magnetic field for auto parking system

Abstract

For the last decade, autonomous and electric vehicle market grow rapidly. Vehicle paradigm has been changing from vehicle based on internal combustion engine to vehicle based on artificial intelligence and electric motor. This paradigm shift also increased the expectation on autonomous parking and charging system. However, vehicle localization method using GPS can not be used especially indoor parking process. There should be a solution to help vehicle localization even when car is indoor. This dissertation proposed a novel vehicle localization method using magnetic field, which is used in vehicle’s wireless charging system. The whole system is verified using simulation and machine learning algorithm.
