IWR1843: Multiple radars system

Nancy Wang

Part Number: IWR1843

Hi，

Customer wants to use multiple radars for data collection, but does not know if there are interference problems with multiple radars?

if radar can be set to receive only so that it can only receive the waves emitted by other radars?

Yes, radar can be easily programmed to receive only. The only change you need is: do not enable any of the TX in the chirp configuration.

Best,

Hi,

Is it modified in demo visualizer?

I would suggest you to change it directly from configuration file. You can modify your chirp configuration lines from:

chirpCfg 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1
chirpCfg 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 2
chirpCfg 2 2 0 0 0 0 0 4

and Modified to

chirpCfg 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
chirpCfg 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0
chirpCfg 2 2 0 0 0 0 0 0

To disable all the TX channel.

Best,

Zigang
