emit

Collect emissions from all emitters mounted on platform

Since R2021a

Syntax

emissions = emit(plat,time)

[emissions,emitterConfigs] = emit(plat)

Description

emissions = emit(plat,time) reports signals emitted from all emitters mounted on the platform, plat, at the specified emission time, time.

[emissions,emitterConfigs] = emit(plat) also returns the configurations of all emitters at the emission time.

Input Arguments

plat — Scenario platform

Platform object

Scenario platform, specified as a Platform object. To create platforms, use the platform function.

time — Simulation time

0 (default) | positive scalar

Simulation time, specified as a positive scalar.

Example: 1.5

Data Types: single | double

Output Arguments

emissions — Emissions of all emitters

cell array of emission objects

Emissions of all emitters mounted on the platform, returned as a cell array of emission objects such as radarEmission objects.

emitterConfigs — Emitter configurations

array of sensor configuration structures

Emitter configurations, returned as an array of emitter configuration structures. Each structure has these fields.

Field	Description
EmitterIndex	Unique emitter index, returned as a positive integer.
IsValidTime	Valid emission time, returned as 0 or 1. IsValidTime is 0 when emitter updates are requested at times that are between update intervals specified by the UpdateInterval property.
IsScanDone	Whether the emitter has completed a scan, returned as true or false.
FieldOfView	Field of view of the emitter, returned as a two-element vector [azimuth; elevation] in degrees.
MeasurementParameters	Emitter measurement parameters, returned as an array of structures containing the coordinate frame transforms needed to transform positions and velocities in the top-level frame to the current emitter frame.
