Hi,
I am currently trying to do a capture on the above mentioned device with the above mentioned SDK version without mmwave studio. I was previously struggling to decode data captured this way with SDK version 5.2. After asking on this forum for help, I was directed toward using the sideband info that is sent along with the data, as the DCA sends junk bytes every so often. Those conversation can be found here: e2e.ti.com/.../iwrl6432boost-processing-and-syncing-raw-adc-data-with-sideband-info-captured-without-mmwave-studio
After switching to SDK 5.3 and taking a break from this issue for I while, I tried again and initially struggled to even perform a capture at all with SDK 5.3. After some searching I found that if I disable sideband info the capturing works.
I am still struggling to decode this data and now since no sideband info is sent I am unsure where to start. Is there any guidance that can be offered?
I also tried to use this capture GUI:
, but I seem to also be unable to decode the raw data produced by it. I also noted that this GUI capture does not work if the data format mode is set to 16bits (whereas it performs a capture if set to 12 or 16). The DigOutputBitsSel config value is set to 5 i.e. it outputs 16 bits as described in the header file:
is this a possible issue that is contributing to my decoding woes?
Note that the method I am currently using to decode these captures works if the captures are produced using mmwave studio, but does not work if I try to use firmware on the device with the exact same settings, hence the confusion.
