showProfile
Plot temporal and spatial profiles of ray-tracing channel
Description
showProfile( plots the power delay
profile (PDP), angle of departure (AoD), and angle of arrival (AoA) information for the
ray-tracing channels in a single figure with three subplots.rtchan)
The PDP subplot is derived from the propagation delay, path loss, phase shift, pattern gain at transmit array and pattern gain at receive array for each ray specified by the
PropagationRaysproperty of thertchaninput.The AoD and AoA subplots show the 3-D directions of the rays in the local coordinate system (LCS).
When the
TransmitArrayorReceiveArrayproperties are objects from the Phased Array System Toolbox software, the AoD and AoA subplots also show the directivity pattern of the arrays.
showProfile(
optionally turns off the directivity pattern in the AoD and AoA subplots. This option
applies only when the rtchan,'ArrayPattern',false)TransmitArray or
ReceiveArray property in the comm.RayTracingChannel
System object™ are objects from the Phased Array System Toolbox software.
Examples
Show Temporal and Spatial Profiles of Ray-Tracing Channel
Perform ray-tracing between two sites, build a multipath channel model using the ray tracing result, and show the temporal and spatial profiles of the channel.
Create a transmitter site and a receiver site. Perform ray tracing to find rays with up to 2 reflections between the sites.
tx = txsite("Latitude",22.2789,"Longitude",114.1625, ... "AntennaAngle",30,"AntennaHeight",10,"TransmitterFrequency",28e9); rx = rxsite("Latitude",22.2799,"Longitude",114.1617, ... "AntennaAngle",120,"AntennaHeight",1); rays = raytrace(tx,rx,"NumReflections",[0 1 2]);
Create a channel model using transmitter site, receiver site, and calculated rays between the sites.
rtchan = comm.RayTracingChannel(rays{1},tx,rx);Show temporal and spatial profiles of the channel.
showProfile(rtchan);
