MATLAB Code:
clc; lamda=input('enter the value of wave length(in meter)= '); N=input('enter the no. of elements= '); alpha=input('enter your progressive phase= '); d=input('enter the separation distance between elements(in meter)= '); beta=(2*pi/lamda); theta= pi/100:pi/100:2*pi; psi=alpha+beta*d.*cos(theta); e=sin(N*(psi./2))./sin(psi./2); polar(theta,e/N); Case 1: When =0, d=/4 N=2 N=4

Observation: As the distance between antennas increases, the radiation pattern is not only broadsided but also radiates in other directions.

=135
Observation: As the phase difference between the excitation increases, the main lobe directivity is decreasing whereas the side lobe is increasing. Submitted by, Sreevatsa K R 1SI08TE054
