RECORDING MEDIUM FOR STORING POSITION ESTIMATION PROGRAM, POSITION ESTIMATION DEVICE, AND POSITION ESTIMATION METHOD
First Claim
1. A non-transitory computer-readable portable storage medium for storing a position estimation program that causes a computer to execute processing to estimate a position of a positioning target, wherein the position estimation program causes the computer to execute processing of:
- acquiring a plurality of pieces of error region information acquired by positioning performed plural times, by using a positioning unit to output the error region information indicating an ellipse-shaped error region represented by a position acquired from positioning performed after receiving a signal from a plurality of transmitters and a measurement error of the position,extending the error region indicated by each piece of the acquired error region information in a major axis direction, andestimating the position of the positioning target based on an intersect region in which the extended error regions intersect with one another.

Abstract
A computer executes processing of acquiring, by using a positioning unit to output error region information indicating an ellipse-shaped error region represented by a position acquired from positioning performed by receiving a signal from a plurality of transmitters and a measurement error of the position, a plurality of pieces of the error region information by performing the positioning a plurality of times, processing of extending the error region indicated by each piece of the acquired error region information in a major axis direction, and processing of estimating a position of a positioning target based on an intersect region at which the extended error regions intersect with one another.
