Spread a random user in hexagonal cell

1 次查看(过去 30 天)
Hello,i drawn one hexagonal cells and I want to spread a random users in it and specify the coordinates of each user in an array. thats my trial :
clear all;
close all;
clc;
t=linspace(0,2*pi,7);
x=0+1*cos(t);
y=0+1*sin(t);
plot(x,y);
hold on
grid on;
for i=1:100
xa=-0.8+1.6*rand(1,1);
ya=-0.8+1.6*rand(1,1);
xra(i)=xa;
yra(i)=ya;
figure(1)
plot(xra(i),yra(i),'k.');
hold on
end
as u see the whole cell cannot be filled by the users ,
Thanks for ur help :)

When you are choosing xa and ya, you are choosing the coordinates from a square from [-0.8, 0.8] in both x and y. Your hexagon extends a bit past +/- 0.8 in y, and extends to +/- 1 in x, and because of the angled lines there are parts of the square (whose coordinates you are choosing from) that are not within the hexagon.
The square: because -0.8+1.6*rand(1,1) ranges from -0.8 + 1.6*0 to -0.8 + 1.6 * 1 which is -0.8 to +0.8, and you use that calculation for both x and y.
You need to find a way of choosing exactly withinin the hexagon, or you need to find a way of choosing over a larger area and discarding the points that are not in the hexagon.

Hint: http://www.mathworks.com/help/techdoc/ref/inpolygon.html
There is even a relevant example.

this is an update for your code:
-----------------------------------
function [xra,yra]=hex_rand(R,i)
% R is the hexagon side length
% i is the number of samples
t=linspace(0,2*pi,7);
x=0+R*cos(t);
y=0+R*sin(t);
plot(x,y);
hold on
grid on;
for m=1:i
xa=x(1)*2*(rand()-1/2);
ya=y(2)*2*(rand()-1/2);
if ((xa>(R/2)) && (ya>(-sqrt(3)*xa+(R*sqrt(3))))) %%the areas where the problem occur
ya=-sqrt(3)*xa+(R*sqrt(3));
elseif ((xa>(R/2)) && (ya<(sqrt(3)*xa-(R*sqrt(3)))))
ya=sqrt(3)*xa-(R*sqrt(3));
elseif ((xa<(-R/2)) && (ya>(sqrt(3)*xa+(R*sqrt(3)))))
ya=sqrt(3)*xa+(R*sqrt(3));
elseif ((xa<(-R/2)) && (ya<(-sqrt(3)*xa-(R*sqrt(3)))))
ya=-sqrt(3)*xa-(R*sqrt(3));
end
xra(m)=xa;
yra(m)=ya;
figure(1)
end
plot(xra,yra,'k.');
hold on
end

how I can change this code if the center of the hexagon is not (0,0). how I can make work with more than one cell? I could draw more than one cell but I could not fix the position od users?

It is often easiest to generate the numbers around an origin of 0 and then add the center as the last step.
