Typical Characteristics

7.1 Radar Loop Gain Pattern

The Radar Loop Gain (RLG) pattern includes the gain in both the TX and RX radar paths and is

defined as the angular separation between the two points at which the gain has decreased by 3 dB

relative to the maximum main lobe value, when the radar itself is used to measure the reflected power.

For details regarding the measurement setup, refer to “Hardware and physical integration guideline”,

chapter 1.2.

Conditions: TA = 25 ºC, VDD = 1.8 V. Tested on 5 XR112 devices.

Figure 7.1 and Figure 7.2 shows the RLG radiation pattern normalized to free space sensor boresight

at elevation plane (E-plane) and azimuth plane (H-plane).
