Navigation Data

We use Nav Mode or Point Cloud methods to extract significant features in the radar data. A threshold is applied to the data and any feature or target which exceeds this threshold is reported as a data point. This data point includes the range, bearing and it's amplitude. Both modes provide all the detected points per azimuth in a single network message. The number of points reported is constrained for performance reasons.

Nav Mode differs from Point Cloud because it uses a sub-resolving technique to significantly improve the range calculation for each point. When the radar is operating in its highest resolution this can lead to sub 2cm accuracy.
The Nav Mode uses a configurable fixed threshold to identify targets however the Point Cloud Mode has the advantage of using a dynamic threshold based on cell averaging.

Output Format: Select the Navigation Output Format. The Point Mode output is an alternative to the standard Nav Mode output.
