Hello,

What is the angle of transmission for AWR1443BOOST? Can I set the transmission signal to be a narrow beam?

Thanks,

Yun

Hello Yun,

AWR1443 does not allow formation of beam or steering during transmission.

You may choose to use Dielectric lens that can focus or narrow the beam to certain region.

Please see the H, E plane radiation plots in EVM User's guide : AWR1443BOOST, AWR1243 Evaluation Module mmWave Sensing Solution

For reference a post discussion use of lens is here: IWR1443BOOST: Lens for vitals signs

Thank you,

Vaibhav
