Part Number: AWR2944EVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR2944

Hello,

I would like to purchase the AWR2944 EVM module. Hence I would like to know that when we connect with the DCA1000 EVM .Can we obtain both I and Q data or just I- data?

Please clarify the doubt .

Regards,

Vandana

Hi Cesar,

Since we get I-data what applications can we develop using it? Please suggest.

Hi,

The AWR2944 is used for corner radar applications.

Hi,

Thank you for your response.

A GUI is used to create scatter plots and a range doppler map in the document you've attached. Can we apply the same techniques to the data from the DCA1000? (range and range doppler map). Can we also create a map of the range angle using DCA1000?

Should all the data processing should happen within the Radar EVM module and only final output will be displayed as shown in the reference design.

Thank you

Vandana

Hi,

After capturing raw data with DCA1000, you would need to process this data with matlab or python.

Unfortunately we don't have these types of scripts available. You would need to develop your own.

Thank you
