CCS/IWR6843: IWR6843: Velocity disambiguation algorithm for 3 Transmitting antenna and 4 receiving antenna form a Uniform linear array

Part Number: IWR6843

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

hello;

we have made a antenna board with 6843 chip,with 3 transmit antennas and 4 receive antennas,3 transmitters form a uniform linear array,and 4 receivers form a uniform linear array,so 3 transmitters and 4 receivers form a uniform linear array with 12 virtual channels,how to extend unambiguous maximum velocity ?

For FMCW fast chirping signal, the maximum unambiguous velocity is Vmax = wavelength/4Tc,  with Tc is the chirp duration. To get high unambiguous velocity, chirp duration becomes too small to be practical in real system. for our system ,the maximum velocity is Vmax = wavelength/(4*Tc* 3 (transmitters)),

In the document,

mmwave_sdk_02_00_00_04/packages/ti/demo/xwr16xx/mmw/docs/doxygen/html/index.html#Figure_calibration

the document have given a algorithm to resolve ambiguous velocity for the case 2 transmitters and 4 receivers form a uniform linear array with 8 virtual channels,how to extend this algorithm to  the case 3 transmitters and 4 receivers form a uniform linear array with 12 virtual channels ?

the question :

IWR1443: How to extend unambiguous maximum velocity of mmWave sensor

site:

https://e2e.ti.com/support/sensors/f/1023/t/595633?IWR1443-How-to-extend-unambiguous-maximum-velocity-of-mmWave-sensor

have give two possible solutions to extend maximum unambiguous velocity:

1.Velocity disambiguation by varying inter-chirp time

2.Velocity disambiguation based on observation of successive range estimates

Compare to the 2nd method,the 1st method ,It's difficult to realize in the case 3 transmitters and 4 receivers.

we didn't undestand the 2nd algorithm,is it same as the method in the upper document ? how to apply the sdk document‘s velocity disambiguation algorithm to the case 3 transmitters and 4 receivers form a uniform linear array with 12 virtual channels ???

please give us help

many thanks
