Hi All,
I'm trying to simulate a bicone antenna with flat sheet reflector using antenna toolbox. Using antennaDesigner I can create the two objects, and I rotate both about the x axis by 90 degrees to get the correct orientation.
However the center of the bicone is not aligned with the center of the reflector, making the model unuseable. Is there a way to move or shift the bicone so the center feedpoint is at 0mm? At the moment, the end of the cone is positioned at 0mm.
I see a translate function exists for custom shapes but nothing for the standard models. I guess I could try creating a custom shape for the reflector and aligning to the bicone, but the standard library should work....
Any ideas?
antennaObject = design(reflector('Exciter', bicone), 1000*1e6);
antennaObject.Exciter.BroadRadius = 0.033;
antennaObject.Exciter.Tilt = 90;
antennaObject.GroundPlaneLength = 0.2;
antennaObject.GroundPlaneWidth = 0.2;
