Part Number: AWR1843AOPEVM
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1843AOP
Hi Team,
Posting on behalf of our customer.
I am currently working on a drone defense system. I am tasked with determining a solution for our wide field of view (WFOV) initial detection and continuous tracking within our defined airspace. These drones have a cross section of roughly 6 inches wide by 3 inches tall. I spent hours researching this component and came up with a detailed approach to optimize our setup, develop the best configuration, and extend the range of these AWR1843AOPEVM units. I have attached this research and would like to know if this configuration is sufficient for what we need (~100m detect/tracking range with full 360 azimuth + 180 elevation coverage) on a basic level. Essentially, is it possible in the first place and what do the result metrics actually entail--do they meet our needs and if not what is the expected performance?
Research: Brief Design and Functional Outline - WFOV.pdf
A slight change to this research: the lens will be modified to the following parameters to achieve a 90 degree FOV instead of 70.
- Diameter 95 mm
- Focal Length 45 mm
- Radius of Curvature 22.5–26 mm
- Height (center) ~42–45 mm
- Material SLA Resin (εᵣ ≈ 2.4) NOT CHANGED
- Mounting ~45 mm from radar chip
Regards,
Danilo
