Part Number: IWR1642BOOST

Hi,

I have managed to read the serial data from the sensor. However, can someone tell me what the follwing stand for:

RangeProf[0]:   091.787
   RangeProf[1]:   099.316
   RangeProf[2]:   097.093
   RangeProf[3]:   091.389
   RangeProf[4]:   086.496

....... and so on...

Thanks

Hello Akash,

The values represent the signal strength/relative power for the given range bin index. For example, you would interpret RangeProf[4]: 086.496 as at the 4th range bin the relative power was 86.496 dB. This array of data is what comprises the Range Profile plot shown in the Demo Visualizer.
