Create Antenna Element from MSIREAD

Hello,

I have inported an antenna pattern using msiread.

I need to use this imported horizontal and vertical pattern to show coverage using a txsite.

Is there a way to convert the input from msiread [Horizontal, Vertical] format into the 181x361 that phased.CustomAntennaElement requires?

Hi Al,

I think there is a similar question on the forum :Import MSI antenna file into a custom antenna element - (mathworks.com). They read from a MSI file, do some operations and pass arguments into phased.CustomAntennaElement. Hope it helps.

I saw that one but they responder said it wasnt correct and wasnt an aceptable answer. I followed what they had over there and didn't get a solution either.

Any insight on how to recreate it?

Thanks!

Hey Al,

I just used the code from Joshua Jones' answer, used an antenna pattern msi file I downloaded from here(MSI Antenna Pattern File Library (wireless-planning.com)) and was able to get a 3D response pattern. Can you tell me the exact issue you face when you run Joshua Jones' code?
