TDA3: Monopulse Algorithm plugin

Khai Trinh

Part Number: TDA3

Hi,

I would like to know if the VisionSDK have support for monopulse processing algorithm that can be used in an use case similar to that of FFT, CFAR, etc...?

Thanks,

    Khai,

    The Vision SDK framework would allow you to integrate any specific Monopulse processing algorithm which you feel cannot be hanlded by the FFT, CFAR etc. existing out of box algorithms.

    Just to understand from the system aspect which front end are you looking at to generate monopulses?

    Thanks and Regards,

    AWR1243. Would that work?

    Khai,

    You may need to work with our AWR1243 experts to understand how to configure the AWR1243 as a monopulse radar. From a processing side, you should be able to plug in any custom algorithms you would like to use to process the data in Vision SDK.

    If you have any pointed algorithms you are looking for we can discuss to understand what is already covered out of box and what additionally you would need to create to support monopulse radar data processing.

    Thanks and Regards,

    Hi Piyali,

    How do I engage the AWR1243 team for discussion of how to configure it for monopulse? Our monopulse algorithm is very simple. (A - B)/(A + B) where A is list of targets from RDM0 and B is list of targets from RDM1. Run through that formula and find the arctan of it for each target for the angle of the target. So, a simple processing algorithm after CFAR detection is all we need.

    Khai,

    I will assign this thread to the AWR1243 experts to help you the front end configuration.

    For the processing on the TDA side, you should be able to use the C66x DSP to implement the monopulse algorithm.
    For adding a new algorithm function to the SDK you can refer to Section 4 Algorithm Function Creation in the vision_sdk\docs\Radar\ProcessorSDKRadar_DevelopmentGuide.pdf

    Thanks and Regards,
