AWR6843AOP: AWR6843AOP Antenna pattern measurement

Part Number: AWR6843AOP

Hi Ti,

I want to measure the antenna pattern of the AOP in my company.
According to the datasheet, the antenna pattern is measured through a corner reflector.
I also saw someone asking this question on E2E .
https://e2e.ti.com/support/sensors-group/sensors/f/sensors-forum/1213352/awr1843aopevm-antenna-characterisics?tisearch=e2e-sitesearch&keymatch=antenna%20characterisics#

If I want to get the antenna pattern of TX1 and RX1 (Like the picture below), how should I set it in the software?
I need to fix the contents of the cfg?
Can Ti provide a sample program for our reference?


BR,
Vincent


  • Hello,

    You can use mmWave Studio to enable only TX1 and radiate for your partiular configuration. If you are using the EVM, you could use it in conjunction with a capture card like the DCA1000 to save the raw ADC data. You would then need to post process this raw ADC data to find the range bin with the peak response. 

    Please let me know if this is helpful.

    Thanks,
