When configuring the ADC sample count for a cascaded configuration of four AWR2243 devices, i modified the ADC sample count in the profile to 256 (by modifying the value of numAdcSamples in the structure rlProfileCfg_t), and then call to the rlSetProfileConfig API returned a successful write status. However, upon analyzing the data output, i discovered that the ADC sample count remained at 128.
I calculated that the data size for one frame of the AWR2243 is 12582912 bytes. Dividing this by 128 (number of chirps), by the number of transmit and receive antennas (12 * 16), and by 4 (number of bytes per sample), it arrived at an expected sample count of 128. Regardless of my modifications to the numAdcSamples value, the length of the data frame did not change.
I would like to understand why the configuration of numAdcSamples did not take effect and what possible reasons could lead to this situation.
