AWR1443: as a 3D surface scanner with sub 1mm resolution at -55C and +160C

Part Number: AWR1443

Hello,

I have almost no knowledge of mmWave but I saw some interesting questions about medical applications, and made me think this may solve my industrial problem.

I need to scan a metal plate (30x14cm) to detect sub 1mm structures vs. a reference pattern. The scanner antenna would be positioned about 5 to 20 cm above the tray. I can have both the tray or the scanner move. And I need this to be done in less than 10s in an environment that can go as low as -55C and as high as 160C.

Is it possible to achieve this with the AWR1443?

Are there vendors of ready solutions capable of doing the above? which ones?

Thank you for your help.

N.

    Hello Nicolas,

    Imaging type radar is typically done with cascaded mmWave sensors to improve the angular resolution and SNR and possibly using synthetic aperature radar. 

    I would refer you to search the academic literature for SAR and mmWave. However, there are not currently off-the-shelf commercial solutions available to the public.
