This reference design demonstrates the use of the IWR6843: a single-chip: mmWave radar sensor with integrated DSP: for an indoor and outdoor people-counting application along with sub-1 GHz wireless communication. This design uses MMWAVEICBOOST and IWR6843ISK evaluation modules (EVMs) together with the LAUNCHXLCC1352R1 wireless MCU LaunchPadTM. This solution is shown to localize people out to 6 meters (short range configuration) and 14 meters (long range configuration).
