Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1843BOOST, AWR2944
Tool/software:
Hi everyone,
We want to stream raw ADC data from a radar sensor, but we are looking for a cheaper and less power consuming choice rather than using DCA1000.
Formerly, we were working with AWR1843BOOST board and we were streaming the raw ADC data over UART with a very low frame rate of 1 Hz. UART bandwith did not allow higher frame (=data) rates.
Our method : We manipulate the signal processing chain, bypass everything and make the EDMA copy the raw ADC data from ADC ping pong buffers to radar data memory. Than, we streamed the raw data from memory to UART. We don't need to process the data in parallel.
Now, we need to increase the frame rate. The attached PDF file shows our analysis about data rate requirements on streaming raw ADC data.
Requirements and Constraints of Streaming Raw ADC Data Over a Serial Interface-100525-101836.pdf
Our question is that:
1000 Mbps maximum data rate of ethernet interface in awr2944 is fairly enough to stream raw ADC data.
Are there any attempts on this? Can we use ethernet in streaming raw ADC data?
Thanks for any help...
