9.3.1.2 Transmit Subsystem

The AWR1243 transmit subsystem consists of three parallel transmit chains, each with independent phase and amplitude control. A maximum of two transmit chains can be operational at the same time, however all three chains can be operated together in a time-multiplexed fashion. The device supports binary phase modulation for MIMO radar and interference mitigation.

Each transmit chain can deliver a maximum of 12 dBm at the antenna port on the PCB. The transmit chains also support programmable backoff for system optimization.

Figure 9-3 describes the transmit subsystem.
