hi there
i am working on phased arrays.there is lot's of antennas on a predefined lattice.now i want to map the lattice grid on a cylinder or sphere etc .... it is a 2D to 3D mapping to construct a conformal array. any suggestions could be helpful...D

Perhaps these might be of interest:
or look at the 66 other entries by Dirk - many of which involve 3D surface rendering: http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/index?term=authorid%3A29180

Consider using a texture map, which involves setting the CData for a surface or patch object.
If you want to "wrap" something about a shape, I do not recall any tool for that. For such a situation you might want to look at John D'Errico's contribution for "alpha shapes".

The spacing in a 2D lattice becomes the arc length on a cylindrical surface, so knowing the radius and arclength can help you compute the interspacing angle, thus the coordinates. The sphere case is more challenging and the first question comes up is that, I don't think in general a rectangular grid can be fully mapped on a sphere, just try with a paper and certain parts of the paper never goes on to the sphere surface. So there are some issues you need to solve.
