What am I doing?
I am playing around with BLE for distance calculation and asset tracking. To standardize the sensitivity of each sensor, I have devised a 1D jig. The jig has scale model train track measuring ~180cm, and the train carrying a TOF sensor connected to ESP32 beacon. The train runs towards a wall, which contains the sensor (another ESP32). At regular time intervals, the beacon transmits signals with the measured distance to the wall. The sensor will receive the measured distance as well as RSSI. The train is moving at a constant speed (except for start and stop). All this is set. The code for collecting data works.
Before this, I have collected RSSI for the beacon, in the sensor(s) at 1m and 2m respectively from a beacon.
Based on the measured distance from ToF and the RSSI, I am trying to build a Kalman Filter that can be extended / extrapolated to slightly longer distances (about 3 - 4 metres).
I have a good measure of the error in distance calculation from RSSI (based on the 1m and 2m readings). The jig will give me a fine grain distance / error measurement for RSSI as well.
Where am I stuck?
However, I don't know what my process noise is?
Is it the noise in ToF measurement?
PS: I know this is not a programming question. But, I didn't find any clear cut answers for this question. I am hoping that StackOverflow would help here. Thanks in advance.
