AWR1443: Problem with AWR1443 configuration parameters

Part Number: AWR1443


The project requires the use of the AWR1443 chip for long-distance detection. However, by configuring the mmWave Demo Visualizer to configure the best range mode, it is found that it cannot be configured to pass. There will always be errors.The ccs project for the application is mmw_mss_14XX.The error is as follows

I found the following statement execution problem by tracking software。
  • Hi,

    The configuration is probably not correct.

    Can you please share the configuration file with us?

    Thank you

  • I want to detect the distance of 70M. The distance resolution is not considered first. Is it possible to recommend some parameters?
  • I tried this set of parameters is not OK, please take a look

  • Hello,

    There are tools and app-note available on ti.com which will surely help you to get the correct configuration to meet your use-case.

    mmWave Sensing Estimator (training for this tool), Programming Chirp Parameters (this appnote will help you understand significant of mmwave configuration parameters), chirp database.

    Parameters you are providing in profileCfg command is not falling under valid chirp-configurations window because of which this API returns an error.

    We would recommend going over above-mentioned links to get this issue resolved.

    Regards,

    Jitendra
