LAUNCHXL-CC26X2R1: Is the Beamforming function built into the development kit examples?

sanghee park

Hi Team,

We need your help. I want to do beamforming by tracking the position of a target using cc26x2R1. However, I have a problem and I have a question.

1. Does your company have an antenna that can be used as an external antenna for the CC26X2R1 that can use the AoA function?

If not, do you have design files or design notes?

2. Does the example have beamforming capability?

That is all. Thank you for your reply.

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out to us. At this time, we do not offer any evaluation boards that include an external antenna for AoA evaluation. We previously offered the BOOSTXL-AOA board, but this has been EOL'd and we no longer support it. For more information regarding this, please reference the following E2E thread:

Regarding beamforming, we do not have an example that show cases this. The following E2E thread provides some information about this:
