IWR1443

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: IWR1443, AWR1642

Hi,

I'm usign IWR1443 and by time i'am discovering always something new. I've got a question about some informations.

Thinking about AWR1642 i konow that is possible to have the range/azimuth heatmap. But for IWR1443 i would have 2 of those matrix one for range/azimuth and one for range/elevation.

The question is how can i extract those two matrix to use them on Matlab? I think thata i've already extractet the same information of AWR1642 because i've worked also on that but the range/elevation i have no idea of how get it.

Thanks,

Best Regards

  • HI,  

    IWR1443 antenna pattern can generate 3D location.  The range-azimuth heatmap is supported in the SDK, however, range-elevation heatmap is not supported in the SDK.   You sure can modify the code to add this.  

                                          TX2-RX1  TX2-RX2 TX2-RX3 TX2-RX4

    TX1-RX1   TX1-RX2  TX1-RX3 TX1-RX4 TX3-RX1 TX3-RX2 TX3-RX3 TX3-RX4

    For azimuth spectrum, you can use 8 antenna to calculate.  For Elevation spectrum, you only have 2 antennas with different elevation location, but you have 4 set of two antenna. eg.  {(TX2-RX1, TX1-RX3), (TX2-RX2, TX1-RX4), (TX2-RX3, TX3-RX1), (TX2-RX4, TX3-RX2)} You can consider calculate 4 spectrum based on these four sets, and adds them non-coherently (add them in power).
