Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR6843
Hello ,
According to below notation, I suppose higher processing chain can be managed by either embedded mmWave application in MSS/DSS or external processor.
Q1. In case of 'people counting' demo, is embedded application entirely used for the higher processing ?
Q2. I am fine if you can provide a document to know output format of IWR6843 to post application, in case that higher processing chain is managed by (1) embedded mmWave application and (2) external processor (= only detection processing chain).

5. 2. 0. 0. 1Figure 8: Typical mmWave radar processing chain
Using mmWave SDK the above chain could be realized as shown in the following figure for devices with HWA or DSP as processing nodes. In the
following figure, green arrow shows the control path and red arrow shows the data path. Blue blocks are mmWave SDK components and yellow
blocks are custom application code. The hierarchy of software flow/calls is shown with embedding boxes. Depending on the complexity of the higher
algorithms (such as clustering, tracking, etc) and their memory/mips consumption, they can either be partially realized inside the mmWave device or
would run entirely on the external processor.
Best regards,
Taka
