Hi All, I have been struggling for 2 day with problem I mentioned in title. I would like to visualize the 3D antenna pattern with 70 degrees beamwidth (half power angle) for horizontal plane and 15 degrees for vertical plane. I would like to see directivity (shape) and gain (as color of shape). I got some result but it is not what I wanted to see. I'm using standard approach with meshgrind and sph2cart functions, maybe I make mistake somewhere. I attached the code and image presenting the beam. Link to beam plot: http://speedy.sh/PwYen/an.png
clear all
close all
AntennaGain = 14; % typical gain for below angles
hangle3db = 70;
vangle3db = 15;
[phi theta] = meshgrid(-180:180,-90:90);
Zin = - (12*(phi/hangle3db).^2 + 12*(theta/vangle3db).^2);
Zin = Zin + AntennaGain; % total gain
mnz = min(min(Zin));
mxz = max(max(Zin));
shape = Zin;
[x y z] = sph2cart(phi*pi/180,theta*pi/180,shape);
surf(x,y,z,'EdgeColor','none')
daspect([1 1 1])
I would be so grateful for any comments and remarks.

I couldn't really comment on the pattern itself but I think part of the issue is that your color is not appropriately applied. You can try to replace your surf with the following command
surf(x,y,z,'EdgeColor','none','CData',Zin)

Thanks for your comment, but unfortunetaly it dosen't solve my problem at all. BTW I would like add something, namely how can I take into account the distance, is it possible, I'm afraid not, but maybe I'm wrong ?
Cheers

Could you explain then what the issue is? What is the result you want to see?
