I'm getting the message 'Input must be a string expression, function name, function handle, or INL'. 'E' is indeed a function of Theta. The code is attached below. The E field values for different values of Theta are displayed on the command window but it is not getting plotted. How do I go about this?
%The script aims to plot the 2D radiation pattern of an antenna array
%The constants used are f,c,k,dx,dy,q,M,N,focal and phi
%Electric field varies only with Theta
f = input('Enter the input frequency in GHz ');
c = 3*(10^8); %speed of light, constant
k = (2*180*(f*1e9))/c; %computes wavenumber
dx = input('Enter the row-wise inter-element spacing ');
dy = input('Enter the column-wise inter-element spacing ');
q = input('Enter q for cosine power radiation pattern of horn ');
focal = input('Enter the focal length ');
M = input('Enter the number of rows: M ');
N = input('Enter the number of columns: N ');
Phi = 0; % We take phi as zero
Theta = -90:1:90; %angle varies from -pi/2 to +pi/2
%syms Theta Phi
% Array factor is dependent only on Theta and not on phi
AFtot= 0; % Initializing the total array factor to zero
for m = (-M+1) : M
for n = (-N+1): N
Rmn = sqrt((((m-0.5)*dx)^2) + (((n-0.5)*dy)^2) + (focal^2));
Rr = sin(Theta)*dx*(m-0.5); %Rr is the dot product of rmn vector and rcap vector
Phimn = (k*(Rmn-Rr))- 2*180; %Computes phimn
E = exp(1i*(Phimn+Rr-(k*Rmn)));
AF = E.*((cos(Theta)).^q)/Rmn;
AFtot = AFtot + AF;
end
end
E = AFtot.*cos(Theta); %Computes the Electric field pattern
disp(E);
ezplot(E);

ezplot requires a function handle as an input whereas you are inputting a vector. Seeing as you have the results as a vector I think it would be most straightforward to use plot instead of ezplot
plot(E)
Or perhaps
plot(Theta,real(E))

I've noted your point. Glad to receive the suggestion.
