AWR1642BOOST: Is there any method to transmit 2d FFT result for all virtual antennas?

Part Number: AWR1642BOOST
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DCA1000EVM

Hi,

I am trying to transmit 2d FFT result (range doppler map) for all virtual antennas to extract both range-doppler map and range-azimuth map for all bins since 'azimuthStaticHeatMap' only show the zero doppler.

With DCA1000EVM and ethernet connection with PC, I transmit user sw data through LVDS. 

the data that i want to transmit is MmwDemo_DSS_DataPathObj_t.fftout2D.

TO extract all fftout2d data for all virtual antenna, at dss_data_path.c, I modified part of azimuthheatmap to contain all fft2d result for each doppler bin(16 doppler bins)

However, as mentioned at https://e2e.ti.com/support/sensors/f/1023/p/789287/2921357

Due to limitation of CBUFF size, I cannot transmit all fft2d data through lvds by using sw configured lvds data.

Is there any method to extract all fft2d result using lvds? Or do I have to reduce the size of fft 2d( decrease the number of range bins or doppler bins)?

Thanks a lot

  • Hi Jinhyeong ,
    If you planning to decrease the no. of range/doppler bins then above mentioned e2e thread has already answered your query to send any userData (even FFT output) over LVDS.
    You need to follow the same method where data address is assigned to cbuff (for user data).
