Azimuth Broadside Converter
Convert azimuth angle to broadside angle or broadside angle to azimuth angle
Libraries:
Phased Array System Toolbox /
Environment and Target
Description
The Azimuth Broadside Converter block converts an angle direction expressed in terms of Broadside Angles into the equivalent azimuth angle or converts from azimuth angle into the equivalent broadside angle. In both cases, you must specify the elevation angle.
Examples
Convert Azimuth and Elevation to Broadside Angle
Convert a direction with an azimuth angle of 45 degrees and an elevation angle of 30 degrees into a broadside angle.
Ports
Input
az — Azimuth angle
scalar | vector of real-values
Azimuth angle of direction, specified as a scalar or vector of
real-values. Units are in degrees. When az
is a
vector, the dimensions of az
and
el
must match.
Dependencies
To enable this port, set Conversion Mode to azimuth -> broadside.
Data Types: double
bsd — Broadside angle
scalar | vector of real-values
Broadside angle of direction, specified as a scalar or vector of
real-values. Units are in degrees. When bsd
is a
vector, the dimensions of bsd
and
el
must match.
Dependencies
To enable this port, set Conversion Mode to broadside -> azimuth.
Data Types: double
el — Elevation angle
scalar | vector of real-values
Elevation angle of direction, specified as a scalar or vector of
real-values. Units are in degrees. The dimensions of
el
must match the dimensions of
az
and bsd
.
Data Types: double
Output
az — Azimuth angle
scalar | vector of real-values
Azimuth angle of direction, returned as a scalar or vector of real-values. Units are in degrees.
Dependencies
To enable this port, set Conversion Mode to broadside -> azimuth.
Data Types: double
bsd — Broadside angle
scalar | vector of real-values
Broadside angle of direction, returned as a scalar or vector of real-values. Units are in degrees.
Dependencies
To enable this port, set Conversion Mode to azimuth -> broadside.
Data Types: double
Parameters
Conversion mode — Angle conversion type
broadside -> azimuth (default) | azimuth -> broadside
Angle conversion type, specified as
broadside -> azimuth | Convert direction expressed in broadside and elevation angles to azimuth and elevation angles. |
azimuth -> broadside | Convert direction expressed in azimuth and elevation angles to broadside and elevation angles. |
