IWR6843ISK-ODS BPM antenna setting

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR6843ISK-ODS, IWR6843ISK

Hello, TI engineers.

I want to implement the BMP method under IWR6843ISK-ODS. We set the BPM to send Tx1 and Tx2 signals at the same time. 

However, an error occurred when we run the radar. We found that when setting the BPM for IWR6843ISK and 6843AOP,

Tx1 and Tx3 were sent at the same time, the ODS is different from the latter two, so we found problems with RF settings during debugging in CCS,

and modified the RF setting as following, and then the radar is working. Is this process correct and Is there something else I'm missing?

Regard.

  • HI, there:

    Are you running SDK OOB demo?  Are you using bpmCfg for BPM enabling?

    Do you mean the OOB demo works for ISK board and the TX1 and TX3 are used?  What steps are you using to enable BPM in ISK board?  and What steps are you using to enable BPM in ODS board? 

    Best,

  • Hi zigang :

         The OOB demo works for ISK is used TX1 and TX3, and we enable the bmpCfg for BPM.

         We transform this structure to ODS because the OOB demo in ODS not has bpmCfg setting. We enable the bmpCfg for BPM, and set the BPM to send Tx1 and Tx2. We need to modified the RF setting for working the radar

  • HI, there:

    SDK release package does not support ODS board.  But we added the supported inside radar toolbox, please find it here.

    You can downloaded the latest radar toolbox from below:

    Let you know if it is helpful.
