Examples

Display Antenna Structure

This example shows how to create a vivaldi antenna and display the antenna structure.

h = vivaldi

h = 
  vivaldi with properties:

             TaperLength: 0.2430
           ApertureWidth: 0.1050
             OpeningRate: 25
           SlotLineWidth: 5.0000e-04
          CavityDiameter: 0.0240
    CavityToTaperSpacing: 0.0230
       GroundPlaneLength: 0.3000
        GroundPlaneWidth: 0.1250
              FeedOffset: -0.1045
               Conductor: [1x1 metal]
                    Tilt: 0
                TiltAxis: [1 0 0]
                    Load: [1x1 lumpedElement]

show(h)

Show Circle Shape

Create a circular shape and visualize the filled regions.

c  = antenna.Circle;
show(c);

Input Arguments

object — Antenna or array object

scalar

Antenna or array object, specified as a scalar.

shape — Shape created using custom elements and shape objects

object

Shape created using custom elements and shape objects of Antenna Toolbox, specified as an object. You can create the shapes using antenna.Circle, antenna.Polygon, or antenna.Rectangle.

Example: c = antenna.Rectangle; show(c)
