Self-position identification apparatus and self-position identification method
First Claim
1. A self-position identification apparatus comprising:
- a storage device storing position association unique information associating position coordinates and unique information indicating a unique feature amount associated with the position coordinates;
a transmission device transmitting a detection signal assigned identification information;
a reception device receiving a reflection signal corresponding to the detection signal transmitted by said transmission device;
a generation device generating signal unique information based on a unique position from the reflection signal received by said reception device; and
an identification device comparing between the signal unique information generated by said generation device and the unique information associated with the position coordinates included in the position association unique information and identifying a current position.

Abstract
A position identification apparatus includes a storage section storing a position-unique information database containing, each position on a field and unique information generated from the signal strength of the reflected wave at the position in association with each other, an ultrasonic transmission section originating an ultrasonic wave assigned identification information, an ultrasonic reception section receiving the reflected wave of the ultrasonic wave, a unique information generation section generating signal unique information from the reflected wave, and a position identification section making a comparison between the signal unique information generated by the unique information generation section and the unique information included in the position-unique information database and identifying the current position.
