IWR6843ISK-ODS: IWR6843ISK-ODS

Hi,

    I have two queries here.

1. What are the difference between Industrial and Automotive grade mmwave sensors?

2. For the examples in the industrial tool box, is there a documentation available for the source code. For eg: what is the purpose of certain function and such?

Thanks.

    Industrial Grade sensors typically operate at 60 GHz, whereas Automotive are at 77 GHz.

    Yes there is quite a lot of documentation. Our industrial toolbox examples typically have a docs folder in the corresponding example. What functions are you trying to understand?

    Best,

    Thanks Nate.

    Basically, I want to understand the parameters and play around with various parameters like S, chirp signal, observation window, what does DSP code do, etc

    That's what Im looking for in the code, just to understand better.

    Hi Srinivas,

    I would recommend starting by understanding the configuration file, and not modifying the code until you feel you have a strong understanding of the config file. You can modify the chirp, the tracker, CFAR and many more functions in the config file. It has many parameters that can be changed without needing to reprogram the sensor. 

    Best,
