AWR2243BOOST: AWR2243BOOST mmWAVE STUDIO configuration in LINUX

Are there any alternatives for configuring the AWR2243BOOST board in Linux?

Hi,

Unfortunately there is no simple way. 

What application are you working on? Can you use AWR6843 in instead of AWR2243BOOST? It has ROS support

thank you

I am planning to use a four-device cascaded configuration of the AWR2243BOOST for an automotive application. I would like clarification on the following points:

1. Does the AWR6843 IC support cascading?

2. What is the procedure to configure the AWR2243BOOST board using a processor, without relying on mmWave Studio?

3. Can the mmWave SDK be used for configuring and enabling real-time operation of the AWR2243BOOST in a Linux environment?

4. For real-time applications with the AWR2243BOOST, can the mmWave API and mmWaveLink operate under Linux?

Thank you

If you are considering four device cascade than 4x2243 is your only option.

A few more questions:

What is the host processor you are planning to use? Are you planning to use the MMWCAS_RF_EVM or are you designing your own board? 

Usually running mmWaveLink on Linux and receiving the CSI data on linux is a VERY complex system. We would recommend using a third party that is familiar with this

Hi,

I am planning to use an ARM Cortex-A series processor.

Is my understanding correct that, since the AWR2243BOOST does not have an internal MCU, the mmWave SDK is not directly supported?

Can I implement the DFP and ICD (mmWaveLink protocol) in Linux, and would this be the appropriate approach for enabling real-time operation of the AWR2243BOOST in Linux when using a computer for initial verification?

Thanks in advance
