Hello Engineers,
Can I use the AWR1642 (I only have this by the way) for measuring the True Ground Speed? If so, how can I do it?

Hi Josh,
In Radar Toolbox, True Ground Speed (ti.com) demo is applicable only for xWRL1432 and xWRL6432. You can port this application to support AWR1642 demo.

Hello Samhitha,
I am new to things about radar, What do you mean by "You can port this application to support AWR1642 demo"?
Thanks so much
Hi Josh,
To run a demo which is developed for xWRL1432, you need to make changes to it such that you can run it using AWR1642. AWR1642 does not have Hardware Accelerator (HWA) whereas AWRL1432 has HWA. So, it is not straight forward to use this demo on AWR1642. If you need more details, I can reassign this thread to the person who worked on this demo.

Hi,
Unfortunately, for AWR1642 we don't have a demo that supports True Ground Speed Measurement.
Thank you
Cesar
yes, it is possible but it requires good knowledge of development on the AWR1642 platform.
thank you
Cesar
Ohh okay, glad to know it's possible. There's probably a person going to ask you about it in the near future as they will be the one going to modify the python code for the GUI because I don't have the slightest idea on how python works. Thanks.
The reference code to implement Ground Speed Measurement can be found in the following demo
TIDEP-01027 reference design | TI.com
https://www.ti.com/lit/ug/tiduf01/tiduf01.pdf
Please see Section 2.4.9 Ransac
The related code is available for AWR2944 in the Radar Toolbox:
radar_toolbox_2_10_00_04\source\ti\examples\ADAS\high_end_corner_radar
Thank you
Cesar
Unfortunately there is not.
The best evaluation platform would be to use an AWR6843
thank you
Cesar
