sph2cart

Transform spherical coordinates to Cartesian.

Syntax

• [x, y, z] = sph2cart(azimuth, elevation, r)

Input argument

• azimuth - a numeric value: Azimuth angle.
• elevation - a numeric value: Elevation angle.
• r - a numeric value: Radius.

Output argument

• x - a numeric value (double or single real): Cartesian coordinates
• y - a numeric value (double or single real): Cartesian coordinates
• z - a numeric value (double or single real): Cartesian coordinates

Description

sph2cart transforms Cartesian to spherical coordinates.

Example

azimut = [0.7854, 0.7854, -0.7854, -0.7854; 2.3562, 2.3562, -2.3562, -2.3562];
elevation = [0.6155, -0.6155, 0.6155, -0.6155; 0.6155, -0.6155, 0.6155, -0.6155];
radius = 1.7321 * ones(2, 4);
[x, y, z] = sph2cart(azimut, elevation, radius)
