AWR1843BOOST: Max Range and Max measurable speed

Part Number: AWR1843BOOST


Hi everyone 

What is the range and maximum speed I can measure using AWR1843BOOST?

I've done some experiments using the mmwaveSensingEstimator;

Max Range: 40m

Range Resolution: 150 cm

Max Velocity: 125

When I set the shape I got the following result.

  • Hi,

    The maximum performance is dependent on several factors

      1) antenna gain

      2) RCS

      3) memory size

      4) number of Tx

    For AWR1843BOOST EVM, by using the 1Gb memory for the Radar Cube we are able to detect and track a car up to about 150-180m.

    This is achieved with 3Tx enabled.

    The demo is available in the TI Resource Explorer in the mmWave Software, Automotive toolbx, labs\lab0007_medium_range_radar

    The max velocity achieved is extended using sw algorithm. With this demo the max velocity is around 140km/h

    Thank you
