What is the steering vector of Single Crossed-loop/monopole antenna with elevation and azimuth degree?

i just want to know what is the steering vector of the single crossed-loop/monopole antenna that the elevation and azimuth degree is contributing

Hi,

To calculate the steering vector of a single crossed-loop/monopole antenna with given elevation and azimuth angles, you can use the “phased.SteeringVector” object from MATLAB's Phased Array System Toolbox. This object computes the steering vector for an array given specified directions and frequency. Here’s a sample code:

% Assuming xsome operating frequency in Hz 
fc = 300e6; 

% Assuming azimuth and elevation angles 
azimuth = 30; 
elevation = 20; 
ang = [azimuth; elevation]; 

% Creating a steering vector object 
steervec = phased.SteeringVector('SensorArray', phased.ULA('NumElements', 2, 'ElementSpacing', 0.5)); 
sv = steervec(fc, ang); 
disp('Steering Vector:'); 
disp(sv); 

To know more about “SteeringVector” object, refer to the following MathWorks documentation link:
