CCS/AWR1642BOOST: what's the max number of tracking objects?

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi sir,

I have a question about the "number of tracking target" in 1642.

The C code is define the MAX_TRK_OBJs = (24U)  (show as the figure)

but after this ,C code also define the "MAX_TRK_OBJs = MAX_NUM_CLUSTER_SRR "

So what's the answer about the max number of tracking objects ? 24 or 32 ?

  • Hi Sir,

    Looks like you caught a bug! Thanks. We'll be fixing it in our next release.

    You can correct it by changing the line maxTrackers to

    obj->trackerInstance.maxTrackers = MAX_TRK_OBJs;

    Regards

  • Hi Anil,

    So the limitation of tracking objects is 24?

    Can I edit something to improve it to 32 or higher?

    Thanks

  • Hi,

    Yes, you may edit the number of trackers to 32.

    There are a couple of things to keep in mind though. Each additional tracker takes ~100 bytes. Also, there is the MIPS associated with computing and maintaining the track. Finally, the number of tracks that are sent out can overload the UART line.

    That being said, the selection of 24 trackers was quite arbitrary, so higher numbers should work.

    Regards
