Hi Pomisov,
There are two ways you can see the directivity information.
The first one is to plot the radiation pattern. For example
fc = 3e8; c = 3e8;
h = phased.ULA(4,0.5);
plotResponse(h,fc,c,'format','polar')
You can also use ArrayGain. It is the SNR gain achieved by the array compared to a single element. It is not exactly the directivity but it is related to that.
fc = 3e8; c = 3e8;
h = phased.ULA(4,0.5);
hag = phased.ArrayGain('SensorArray',h,'PropagationSpeed',c);
% calculate array gain at boresight in dB
g = step(hag,fc,[0;0])
HTH,

Does the code above using ArrayGain works for you? If not, could you give me a simplified example? Thanks.
