BOOSTXL-AOA: reference to aoa.exe and files description when collect IQ raw data with SDK 4.40

Part Number: BOOSTXL-AOA

Greetings,

As I upgrade the SDK from 3.40 to the newest version 4.40, now I can get raw IQ both from master and passive node, and they match the frame structure well. However, I have not figured out these new features. Such as how aoa.exe algorithm1 and 2 works, and what are these files under path. In particular, how does the algorithm calculate the elevation with 2 ULA, I suppose only azimuth can be estimated? Is there any reference I can look into?


Thanks in advance.


Best.

  • Hi,

    No estimation algorithm is provided for Connectionless-AoA in SDK 4.40. Only IQ data should be considered.

    The data you are looking at are coming from dummy algorithms. In other words, the elevation is not calculated.

    As a side note, elevation cannot be calculate using the BOOSTXL-AOA. Other antenna types and/or disposition would be required to do so. If you are interested by this topic, please consult specialized literature - I have not specific link to recommend but I can tell you a lot of literature exists.

    Regards,

  • Thanks  a lot for the detail reply.

    Best.
