create cross yagi antenna in matlab

To create a cross yagi antenna in matlab, you can use the built-in antenna design and analysis functions in the Antenna Toolbox. Here is an example code to create and analyze a 6-element cross yagi antenna:

main.m
% Define antenna parameters
freq = 2.4e9; % operating frequency in Hz
d = 0.01 * freq; % element spacing in meters
N = 6; % number of elements in the antenna
L = 0.5 * freq / sqrt(eps0 * mu0); % length of each element in meters
W = 0.02 * d; % width of each element in meters

% Define antenna elements
element = dipole(L, 'Width', W);
elements = repmat(element, 1, N);

% Create cross yagi antenna
crossYagi = yagi('NumElements', N, 'ElementSpacing', d, ...
    'Element', elements, 'ArrayAngle', 0, 'ArrayType', 'crossed', ...
    'FeedOffset', [0.25, 0], 'FeedDiameter', 0.01, ...
    'FrequencyRange', [freq, freq]);

% Plot antenna pattern
pattern(crossYagi, freq);

This code defines the antenna parameters, creates individual dipole elements, and uses the yagi function to create a 6-element cross yagi antenna. Finally, it plots the antenna pattern at the operating frequency. You can adjust the parameters and analyze the pattern to optimize the antenna design for your specific application.
