IWR1843: IWR1843 max velocity

Part Number: IWR1843
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AWR1843BOOST

Good afternoon! Could you tell me what maximum range and maximum speed of objects can be processed by this chip? I want to use this chip to determine the speed of vehicles

  • Hi,

    The maximum range and speed that can detected depends not only on the chip but also on the PCB antenna design.

    We have developed a demo using the AWR1843BOOST EVM to show maximum performance.

    This EVM has a generic antenna and does not achieve the best performance of the chip.

    With this antenna we can achieve ~150-160m vehicle detection at 144km/h.

    Please see the demo material on the TI Resource Explorer: dev/ti.com

    The demo is provided in the mmWave Sensors - Automotive Toolbox folder

    Please download the entire zip file. You will be able to find the demo in

    mmwave_automotive_toolbox_2_9_1\labs\lab0007_medium_range_radar

    Thank you
