Fixing matrix dimensions to match
Show older comments
I'm attempting to plot Pone and Ptwo(P standing for Power), vs. the AngleDif between the two sources. The program doesn't like that my matrix dimensions don't agree on the line Pone = Eone*conj(I). I don't understand how to fix this because the only matrix I'm using is the only to increment the angle theta from -30 to 30. I have very little experience using Matlab if that helps to know. I know that the inner dimensions of two matrices must match to multiply, but I'm having trouble visualizing the process here.
t = 1;
theta = (-30:5:30);
w = 120 * pi;
Eone = (100/sqrt(2))*cosd(theta)+(100/sqrt(2))*1i*sind(theta);
Etwo = (100/sqrt(2))*cosd(30)+(100/sqrt(2))*1i*sind(30);
z = 2 + 1i*5;
I = (Eone - Etwo)/(z);
Pone = Eone*conj(I);
Ptwo = Etwo*conj(I);
Ploss = I*z*z;
AngleDif = 30 - theta;
plot(Pone, Ploss, AngleDif);

The computations work, when you apply the elementwise multiplication with the .* operator instead of the matrix multiplication *
Pone = Eone .* conj(I);
Ptwo = Etwo .* conj(I);
But then the plotting fails:
Error using plot
Data must be a single matrix Y or a list of pairs X,Y.
Maybe you want:
plot3(Pone, Ploss, AngleDif);
but this ignores the imaginary part and show a corresponding warning also.
