System object: phased.URA
Package: phased

Polarization capability

Syntax

flag = isPolarizationCapable(h)

Description

flag = isPolarizationCapable(h) returns a Boolean value, flag, indicating whether the array supports polarization. An array supports polarization if all of its constituent sensor elements support polarization.

Input Arguments

expand all

Uniform rectangular array specified as phased.URA System object™.

Output Arguments

expand all

Polarization-capability flag returned as a Boolean value, true, if the array supports polarization or, false, if it does not.

Examples

Show that a URA array of phased.ShortDipoleAntennaElement short-dipole antenna elements supports polarization.

antenna = phased.ShortDipoleAntennaElement('FrequencyRange',[1e9 10e9]);
array = phased.URA([3,2],'Element',antenna);
isPolarizationCapable(array)
ans = logical
   1

The returned value 1 shows that this array supports polarization.
