Part Number: AWR1443BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1443BOOST, AWR1642BOOST, IWR6843ISK, DCA1000EVM, AWR1642, IWR6843, IWR1443

Hi,

I was looking for an updated or latest radar to detect vital signs and level sensing. I already have these radars: IWR1443BOOST and AWR1642BOOST.

    Hi Deepu,

    I would recommend the IWR6843ISK, as the software we offer is designed for this part.

    Hi Nathan,

    Thanks for your suggestion. Yesterday, I managed to purchase the data capture devices (DCA1000EVM) that had been out of stock for quite some time. Now, I want to buy radars.

    The IWR6843ISK operates within the 60-64GHz frequency range, while the devices I currently possess, namely the IWR1443 and AWR1642, utilize the 77-81GHz range. Considering this frequency discrepancy, do you anticipate any notable differences in the raw data collected between the IWR6843 and the IWR1443/AWR1642 for vital signs detection, Major/minor motion detection, Presence detection, Localization, Breathing rate detection, and Heart rate detection?

    I plan to buy the latest radar models this time around, ensuring that data quality is not compromised. Given that I will be using these radars in different locations to collect data for the mentioned applications, I believe that purchasing the most up-to-date radar technology will provide advanced techniques that I can utilize in the near future.

    Best regards, 

    Deepu

    Hi Deepu,

    In general, the data collected at 77 GHz will be able to detect smaller velocities, which may result in improved performance for vital signs monitoring. However, most regions in the world do not permit non-automotive 77 GHz emissions, which is why our offering is built for 60. You will not be able to use results collected at 77 GHz interchangeably with 60. But, outside of velocity resolution, performance should be similar for both 60 and 77 GHz.

    Best,

    Nate
