AWR1843BOOST: Information on fabrication of antenna part in AWR1843BOOST

Chong Yu

Part Number: AWR1843BOOST

Hi team,

My customer need assistance.

I am currently working on a project using AWR1843BOOST. I would like to know about the fabrication process behind the antenna part in the AWR EVM. I looked up the design file attached in the AWR1843BOOST webpage. Can you help me with more information on the technology like how the antenna was integrated with the AWR chipset and how the antenna was fabricated on the same PCB board? In the future, if I am trying to develop a customized antenna other than the one used in the AWR1843BOOST board, what should be the materials referred to and also the roadmap to be followed?

Thanks in advance.

Kindly check and help. Thanks.

Also you could review, our third party network who are partners in the mmWave sensor ecosystem: This includes partners who have developed custom antenna designs.

For the roadmap discussion I would recommend to contact local TI sales/marketing team from there discussion could be taken forward.

Thanks and regards,

Hi team,

This is Gopinath T, a Technical Associate from Thiagarajar College of Engineering. I am currently working on a mmwave RADAR project using AWR1843BOOST. I have a basic level of doubt about antenna polarization.

Can I call the antenna to be vertically polarized or oriented, when it is placed in the following position?

Can I call the antenna to be horizontal polarized or oriented, when it is placed in the following position?
