yagiUda over a ground plane

How do I create a yagiUda antenna over a ground plane? How do you add height (above a ground plane) to the yagiUda?
How do you add a ground plane to a dipole (not a reflector as a reflector cannot be used as the Exciter for a yagiUda)?

Hi Dean,
You can add the yagiUda as an exciter to a reflector. The same holds true for the dipole backed by a reflector. The following example illustrates this with a spiral: http://www.mathworks.com/help/antenna/examples/reflector-backed-equiangular-spiral.html?prodcode=AA&language=en
Some sample code for the yagiUda: r = reflector; y = yagiUda; r.GroundPlaneLength = 0.5; r.GroundPlaneWidth = 0.5; r.Spacing = 0.5; r.Exciter = y; %% See the geometry figure show(r) %% Calculate and visualize radiation pattern figure pattern(r,300e6)
Hope this helped.
