IWR1443BOOST: Long range configuration file for detecting UAV's

Ryen Elith

Part Number: IWR1443BOOST

Hi,

I am looking to upload a configuration file to the IWR1443Boost, in order to make the device detect UAV's with a wingspan of about 1m at 80m. For example the configuration used in the test "Using mmWave sensors to enhance drone safety and productivity" (http://www.ti.com/lit/wp/spyy001/spyy001.pdfv) would probably do the job. Is the mentioned (or a similar) configuration file available somewhere online or in the CCS resource explorer? If not, could you provide the cfg file from the test? Thanks.

Regards,

Ryen

    Hello Ryen,

    A few of the parameters are available on page 6 of this document: Start Frequency, Frequency Slope, Sampling Rate, and Sample Quantity.

    What specific other parameters are you looking for?

    Hi Akash,

    I am looking for a configuration file (.cfg) that I can upload to the IWR1443Boost using the ti_mmwave_rospkg or the demo visualiser. I considered using the parameters on page 6, but given there are many other parameters to set, I would have to use the TI estimator. Unfortunately the TI estimator didn't have a official conversion or export functionality to .cfg files last time I used it (only the "trick", to export frameCfg and profileCfg using the internet resource explorer - that did not work for me). That's why I thought that if such a .cfg file was used for the test, it could could maybe be made available through the forum... Do you have a way of producing a .cfg file from the parameters you mentioned?

    Regards,

    Ryen

    Hi Ryen,

    I'd recommend looking at the chirp database on the TI Resource Explorer: dev.ti.com/.../

    The elevator application might make sense for your drone application since it has fine velocity resolution and a solid max range.
