IWR6843: Question about HW trigger

Part Number: IWR6843

Hi,

In mmWave-Radar-Interface-Control.pdf, I found below info.

In Hw triggered mode, the Hw pulse should be issued or periodicity
of pulse is configured such that, the pulse is generated only 150us
after the completion of previous frame/burst (The pulse should not
be issued before end of previous frame/burst). The time delta between
end of previous frame/burst and raising edge of Hw pulse
recommended to be < 300us.

Question:

1. Why 150us? Is it a safe time buffer for the external trigger pulse? Or does it because there should be time reserved for BSS operation before next trigger?

2. Why we suggest the interval of previous frame to the hw pulse right edge <300us? Is it due to power saving as below post mentioned about the power increase with external trigger mode?
