CCS/IWR1642BOOST: How to find the amplitude of 2D FFT for IWR1642BOOST

    Hello,

    For clarity can you please restate your question and objective?

  • Hi,

    I know that in the DEMO of IWR1642BOOST, log2Abs is obtained, and log2Abs is used to represent the amplitude value.The result of 2DFFT is a complex number, and the modulus value has a log2 relationship with LOG2ABS.

    Now that I know the value of log2Abs, how can I reverse the value of the Modulus ?

    Thank you

    Hello ZHG,

    The 1D FFT gives you range while the 2D FFT gives you velocity. In a typical processing chain which is implemented in the demo CFAR is used to determine detected objects using relative threshold. This generally provides for a more robust sensing with less variability due to environmental and scene changes.

    In any case you can just convert back to linear values from the log magnitude if your application requires it. These linear values are what comprised the detectionMatrix.
