Recently I bought a BGT60ATR24C radar. Previously I was using the BGT60TR13C model.To extract data with the BGT60TR13C model, I used a Matlab code. However, since the BGT60TR13C model does not have two Tx antennas, I want to know if my code configuration works with two Tx antennas for the new radar. (I added Tx_mode = 2)oDevConf = DeviceConfig.mkDevConf('num_samples_per_chirp',128,'num_chirps_per_frame',64,'adc_samplerate_Hz',2000000,...                                  'frame_period_us',0,'lower_frequency_kHz',60000000,'upper_frequency_kHz',61250000,...                                  'chirp_to_chirp_time_100ps',15496250,'rx_antenna_mask',15,'tx_mode',2,'frame_end_delay_100ps',5878500);Is the radar using the two transmitting antennas in this configuration, or does something else have to be done?-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Another question about the radar model BGT60ATR24C is, how do I correctly divide the raw data into the eight channels? (Two Tx and four Rx)

For the BGT60TR13C model, I used the reshape command in Matlab. And the radar divided the data into Rx 1,2, and 3.

reshape(radar_data,Frame_Number*Samples_per_Chirp*Chirps_per_Frame,NumRXAntenna);

The question is, after dividing, which column represents which Rx antenna? (The reason for this question is that we have the numbers of the 4 Rx antennas in the application notes. However, we do not have the numbers of the antennas in the virtual array generated by the second Tx antenna)

Thank you for any help you may provide.

Hi @George_T,

Thank you for the reply. I did not know about this package.

Where do I download the "Radar BGT60ATR24C ES Advance"? (I searched for it in the Infineon Developer Center. However, I did not find it)

Best regards,

Victor.
