AWR1843BOOST: Can't get the heatmaps from Automated Parking Lab.

Part Number: AWR1843BOOST

In the lab documentation of the automated parking lab, It is mentioned that TLVs in this demo can be of type DETECTED_OBJECTSCLUSTERSRANGE_AZIMUTH_HEAT_MAP, or RANGE_ELEV_HEAT_MAP. 
However, in the data packet format, there are 2 possible TLV types for the automated parking demo: Detected Objects (1) and clusters (2) only. I can't find the other two type in the TLV.

What should I do to get RANGE_AZIMUTH_HEAT_MAP and RANGE_ELEV_HEAT_MAP ??

Thank you,

  • Hi,

    You are correct about your observations.

    I have reviewed this information. Here is my conclusion:

    1) The User Guide is not correct: Azimuth Heatmap and Range Elevation HeatMap are not supported in this processing Chain,

    2) I checked the source code and these heatmaps are not suppored in this processing chains.

    I think this documentation typo comes from the Obstacle Detection Lab which has Range Azimuth and Elevation Heatmaps

    The Automated Parking Processing Chain uses Range Doppler heat maps and not Range Azimuth and Elevation Heatmaps

    Sorry for the confusion,

    We will update the documentation in the next release cycle
