Create a rectangle shape.

r = antenna.Rectangle;
show(r)
axis equal

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with xlabel x (m), ylabel y (m) contains 2 objects of type patch. These objects represent PEC, myrectangle.

Rotate the rectangle at 45 degrees about the Z-axis.

r1 = rotate(r,45,[0 0 0],[0 0 1])
r1 = 
  Rectangle with properties:

         Name: 'myrectangle'
       Center: [0 0]
       Length: 1
        Width: 2
    NumPoints: 2


show(r1)

Figure contains an axes object. The axes object with xlabel x (m), ylabel y (m) contains 2 objects of type patch. These objects represent PEC, myrectangle.

Input Arguments

collapse all

Shape created using custom elements and shape objects of Antenna Toolbox, specified as an object.

Example: area(rectangle) where rectangle is created using antenna.Rectangle object.

Axis of rotation, specified as two unique three-element vectors of Cartesian coordinates in meters.

Example: rotate(rectangle,45,[0 0 0], [0 0 1]) where rectangle is created using antenna.Rectangle object.

Data Types: double

Angle of rotation, specified as a scalar in degrees.

Example: rotate(rectangle,45,[0 0 1], [0 0 0]) rotates the rectangle around X-axis by 45 degrees.

Data Types: double
