  • Hello Jerry, 

    First, the video uses the CC2745R10-Q1 Launchpad with a multiple antenna booster pack. We are not providing boosterpacks in the future, and will switch to a channel sounding specific EVM, which is not fully released yet. 

    Second, the customer should determine what their use case is. What location the car node is in, where they worry about the key fob being most, what distance they would want to unlock at, what the maximum distance they would like to range, and what situations the customer is most interested in testing. 

    Third, make sure you are taking the step measurements from the car node. For instance, if the car node is on the rearview mirror, you will need to account for the ~1m before the front of the car. 

    Fourth, I would recommend 1m steps, with 100 samples per step, but this is up to the customer. 

    Let me know if this helps. 

    Thanks, 

    Isaac
