Matlab error in Windows prompt

I am trying to run a matlab function from windows command line using the following:

matlab -r "UDP_WiFi_1 1500 19.3 7 12000000;exit"

the function is called UDP_WiFi_1 and it takes 4 scalar parameters. This function runs fine without any error if called in matlab command line. However, if it is called from windows command line, it opens matlab and then gives the following error:

Error using /
Matrix dimensions must agree

It is weird because all the parameters are scalar and I don't have any matrix, any help is highly appreciated!

"It is weird because all the parameters are scalar"

Not the way you're calling your function. You're calling it using command syntax which means the first input to your function is '1500' (a 1-by-4 char vector) rather than 1500 (a 1-by-1 double scalar.) You want to call it using function syntax instead:

 matlab -r "UDP_WiFi_1(1500, 19.3, 7, 12000000);exit"
