pattern
Radiation pattern and phase of antenna or array; Embedded pattern of antenna element in array
Syntax
Description
pattern(
plots
the 3-D radiation pattern of the antenna or array object over a specified frequency. By
default, in Antenna Toolbox™, the far-field radius is set to object
,frequency
)100λ
. For a detailed
explanation of field calculation of antennas, see Field Calculation in Antennas.
pattern(___,

additional options specified by one or more Name, Value pair arguments.
You can use any of the input arguments from previous syntaxes.Name,Value
)
Use the 'ElementNumber'
and
'Termination'
property to
calculate the embedded pattern of the antenna
element in an array connected to a voltage source.
The voltage source model consists of an ideal
voltage source of 1 volt in series with a source
impedance. The embedded pattern includes the
effect of mutual coupling due to the other antenna
elements in the array.
