clearEvaluationParameter

Delete one or more performance goals

Description

example

mnobjupdated = clearEvaluationParameter(mnobj,indices) deletes one or more performance goals listed in indices and returns an updated matching network. Use getEvaluationParameters to view performance specifications and find each goal's index.

Examples

Create a dipole antenna and create the S-parameters of the antenna. This example requires Antenna Toolbox.

d       = dipole('Length', 0.103, 'Width',0.0022);
freq    = linspace(0.5e9,2.5e9,1001);
sd      = sparameters(d, freq);

Alternatively, load S-Parameters from the MAT file

% load('sparams_dipole.mat')

Create a matching network from the S-parameters.

n = matchingnetwork('LoadImpedance',sd,'Components',3,...
    'LoadedQ',7,'CenterFrequency',2e9);

Get the evaluation parameters of the network.

t = getEvaluationParameters(n)

Plot the reflection coefficient and transducer gain of the matching network circuit 1 , at a frequency range of 1 GHz to 2.5 GHz.

rfplot(n, (1e9:0.001e9:2.5e9),1);

Add a new evaluation parameter to compare the transducer gain to have a cut-off of less than -10 dB. Use a frequency range of 0.5 GHz to 1.5 GHz. Plot the comparisons.

n = addEvaluationParameter(n, 'Gt', '<', -10, [0.5e9 1.5e9], 1);
t = getEvaluationParameters(n)

rfplot(n, (1e9:0.001e9:2.5e9),1);

Clear evaluation parameters.
