Help regarding acquisition of real time data using Radar Toolbox Support Package for Texas Instruments for AWR2243BOOST & DCA1000EVM

Hi all,

I wish to seek help of the community regarding data acquisition using AWR2243BOOST & DCA1000EVM.

I am using the above mentioned radar to acquire and post process data using the "mmWave Studio 03.00.00.14" but this is not real time.

I was checking how to acquire and post process data in real time using Matlab and radar kit and I found out Radar Toolbox Support Package for Texas Instruments toolbox for Matlab (https://in.mathworks.com/help/radar/ug/getting-started-realtime-adc-dca1000evm-example.html).

(https://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/135046-radar-toolbox-support-package-for-texas-instruments-mmwave-radar-sensors)

I was checking this and I found out that AWR2243B is not listed in the supported list of this toolbox.

Will you please include above mentioned board (AWR2243B & DCA1000EVM) in the Radar Toolbox Support Package for Texas Instruments toolbox so that I can acquire and post process data in real time using MATLAB.

Also please let me know if there is any other way where I can acquire and post process data in real time using Matlab.

I shall be highly obliged if you kindly help me regarding this.

Thanks and regards,

Niladri

From the documentation of the latest release R2024b (https://www.mathworks.com/help/radar/ug/supported-boards-ti-mmwave.html), the Radar Toolbox Support Package for Texas Instruments does not support connection to the TI mmWave Radar Sensor AWR2243BOOST, and interfacing via a DCA1000EVM is not possible.

For the most accurate and up-to-date information, I recommend checking the MathWorks website regularly or contacting MathWorks Technical Support. They can provide insights into any planned software updates or support for newer models like the AWR2243BOOST. Additionally, keep an eye on MATLAB's release notes for upcoming versions, as they often announce new hardware support.
