Hi,

I would like to use the "measureRangeBiasAndRxChanPhase" command.

And the explanation of this command is as follows:

--------------------------

command:

measureRangeBiasAndRxChanPhase 1 X D

(where D (in meters) is the distance of window around X where the peak will be searched.)

document:

\mmwave_sdk_01_02_00_05\packages\ti\demo\xwr16xx\mmw\docs\doxygen\html\index.html

--------------------------

What does it means about "D (in meters) is the distance of window around X where the peak will be searched" ?

I don't understand its meaning very much, and I don't known how to set the "D" value.

May I get more detailed explanation or pictures?

Thanks.

The purpose of D and what it is recommended to be set is explained in the few lines after the one you quoted from doxygen. What is not clear in that description? Thanks.

Hi,

I just would like to make sure the setup environment.

The Top View plot is as follows.

Is this test environment correct ?

Thanks.

In the picture, the box you show surrounding the corner reflector is in theory a full semi-circle (of thickness 2*D and centered at corner reflector) at X meter radius. You can place the corner reflector at what you consider to be 0 deg azimuth. See also
