Description
Block Azimuth Broadside Converter converts the angular direction expressed in tilt angles to an equivalent azimuthal angle or converts an azimuthal angle to an equivalent tilt angle. In both cases, it is necessary to specify the elevation angle.
Ports
Input
az — azimuth angle
scalar | real vector
The azimuthal angle of the direction, given as a scalar quantity or a vector of real numbers. The units of measurement are degrees. If az is a vector, then the dimensions of az and el must match.
Dependencies
To use this port, set the Conversion Mode parameter to azimuth → broadside.
Data types: Float16, Float32, Float64, Int8, Int16, Int32, Int64, UInt8, UInt16, UInt32, UInt64, Bool
bsd — pass tilt angle:q[<br>] scalar | real vector
The angle of inclination, set as a scalar or a vector of real values. The units of measurement are degrees. If bsd is a vector, then the sizes of bsd and el must match.
Dependencies
To use this port, set the Conversion Mode parameter to broadside → azimuth.
Data types: Float16, Float32, Float64, Int8, Int16, Int32, Int64, UInt8, UInt16, UInt32, UInt64, Bool
el — pass elevation angle:q[<br>] scalar | real vector
The elevation angle of the direction, specified as a scalar or a vector of real values. The units of measurement are degrees. The dimension of el must match the dimension of az and bsd.
