AWR1642BOOST-ODS: How to configure the range for obstacle detection test?

Hello Ree,

Please refer to the below links to understand about chirp parameters : 

Programming Chirp Parameters in TI

You could also refer to the mmWave Sensing Estimator to understand how changing certain parameters can affect the chirp parameters. Below is the link for the training series :

In order to understand how the chirp features affect the performance please review the mmWave training at the link below as well. It provides pointers to the mmwave fundamentals training:

Thanks Ishita.

Is there a specific document which explains all configuration parameters of chirp_configs?

In the ods_default_config.cfg, chirpCfg command is called twice with different parameters. Is it a mistake?

sensorStop

channelCfg 15 3 0
adcCfg 2 1
adcbufCfg -1 0 0 1 1

Hello Ree,

Yes, there is a document that explains about all the configurations used to configure a chirp.

You can refer to mmWave_SDK_user_guide.pdf that comes as a part of mmWave SDK Package (docs directory).
