Hello,
I've recently purchased the 24Ghz radar development board BGT24-RFB2412 (with the XMC4400-F100k512 AB micro-controller).
I'm trying to upload a new firmware from the sample code I got with the board.
I tried to use Dave and the usb port but I couldn't make the IDE communicate with board.
Is it possible to use the usb port for this or I have to use the cortex-debug JTAG connection?


Another unrelated question: In the board brochure it says that I can find an example code in infineon's website:
"Software/Firmware
Basic Doppler motion sensing capability comes by default with kit.
DAVE™ SW environment can be downloaded via Infineon website link.
Upgrading to FMCW capability for range/distance measurements can also
be updated from the Infineon website link."

I couldn't find this code... maybe I can get a link here?

I would like to export the data acquired by the Sense2Go Development kit when connected via usb to a laptop, and after running the GUI. The kit comes with the MATLAB which processes the data, as well as displays the data in the GUI. My initial thought is to modify this MATLAB code to include a line which saves the acquired data. Unfortunately, this will not work as I would need to compile this new MATLAB code, which I cannot do as I do not have the MATLAB compiler on my laptop. Anyone have any suggestions on how to save the acquired data? Show Less

Hi,

I read about this in an article and its very cool! Just to clarify - is this dev kit capable of detecting the x,y,z co-ordinates as well as the velocity/motion of the target? Show Less

Hello,

I'm using BGT24MTR11 chip and I need to calculate VCO frequency based on tuning voltage. Vfine and Vcoarse are equal.
I have found a graph in BGT24MTR11 application note 305, but without equation I can only assume if, for example, at 25 degrees and 1.5V frequency is 24.3GHz or 24.4GHz?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Best regards,

Hello all,

We have purchased 24 GHz Radar and were trying to do some measurements. However there are too many ghost targets appearing on the GUI. We are doing in open space indoor measurements.

Available Options:

Receiver : Rx1,
Gain : High

Target Threshold : 30

Gap Around Target : 1

Filter Static Objects : Off
RCS Compensation : Off


When these settings are done, we are not able to detect the correct range of the target or the angle of arrival.


We removed the metal plate from the current position (7 metres) and asked a human to walk with the same settings, unless he comes to 4.5 m -3.5 m , I dont see any target being detected at all , however we dont see many ghost targets appearing [ Case: Filter Static Objects :On]



I have gone through the code to get the relationship between Gap around the target and Target Threshold, however looks very tedious to find ? Can someone suggest what are the best settings to detect the target stable without ghost targets !!

Thanks and regards,

Hello,

I'm trying to start looking into the code for the Automotive 24GHz Radar Development Kit.

In the attached guide for it, in section 2.2 (pg. 7), it asks to install the “SWFramework_3v1r0.zip” from the Infineon homepage, however I cannot find that file anywhere.

I've tried downloading the Free Entry Tricore Toolchain, but that doesn't seem to work.

Please help.

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I am using the 24GHz automotive radar kit. The measurements returned by the radar kit for the distance, speed, angle and RCS seem to be very inconsistent and unreliable. Is anyone else having this problem too? Show Less
