Syntax

az = broadside2az(bsang)
az = broadside2az(bsang,el)

Description

az = broadside2az(bsang) returns the azimuth angle, az, corresponding to the broadside angle, bsang, for zero elevation angle. Angles are defined with respect to the local coordinate system.

example

az = broadside2az(bsang,el) also specifies the elevation angle, el.

Open Live Script

Return the azimuth angle corresponding to a broadside angle of 45° at 0° elevation.

az = broadside2az(45.0)
az = 
45.0000
Open Live Script

Return the azimuth angle corresponding to a broadside angle of 45° and an elevation angle of 20°.

az = broadside2az(45,20)
az = 
48.8063
Open Live Script

Return azimuth angles for 10 pairs of broadside angle and elevation angle.

BSang = (45:5:90)';
el = (45:-5:0)';
az = broadside2az(BSang,el);

Input Arguments

collapse all

Broadside angle, specified as a scalar or vector of real values. Units are in degrees. This argument supports single and double precision.

Example: [10;-22;-80]

Elevation angle, specified as a scalar or vector of real values. The length of el must match the length of bsang. Elevation angles lie in the range from –90° to 90°. Units are in degrees. This argument supports single and double precision.

Example: [5;2;-1]

Output Arguments

collapse all

Azimuth angle, returned as a scalar or vector of real values. The length of azequals the length of bsang. Azimuth angles lie in the range from –180° to 180°. Units are in degrees.
