CCS/AWR1243: Development of cascade radar

CCS/MMWCAS-RF-EVM: AWR1243P cascade system imaging radar

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hi,

I want to develop real time data streaming applications for the cascade radar. I have two devices.
www.ti.com/.../MMWCAS-RF-EVM
https://www.ti.com/tool/MMWCAS-DSP-EVM 

I am following this user guide: C:\ti\PROCESSOR_SDK_VISION_03_07_00_00\vision_sdk\docs\Radar\ProcessorSDKRadar_UserGuide.pdf.

However, the sample applications shown in the user guide are for ultra short-range radar only. I was wondering if it is possible to use the same sample application for a medium-range radar, like 50m?

Please let me know if there are any other sources I can use.

Thanks,

Kshitiz

    Hi,

    Yes, you should be able to use cascade radar for 50m.

    Usually the RF front end is configured with a set o parameters. Based on these parameters it is possible to compute the maximum range.

    Are you able to determine the max range of the demo?

    Let me review the code and get back to you in a few days

    thank you

    HI,

    In order to increase the range you can divide the Params.freqSlope by 10. This will result in a maximum range multiplied by 10.

    Thank you
