e, n, u =aer2enu(az, el, slantrange)¶ - Function File:
e, n, u =aer2enu(az, el, slantrange, angleUnit)¶ Convert spherical Azimuth, Elevation and Range (AER) coordinates into cartesian East, North, Up (ENU) coordinates.
Inputs:
- az, el, slantrange: look angles and distance to target points (angle, angle, length). Scalars, vectors and nD-arrays are accepted and should have the same dimensions and length units.
- az: azimuth angle clockwise from local north.
- el: elevation angle above local horizon.
- slantrange: distance from origin in local spherical system.
- (Optional) angleUnit: string for angular units (radians or degrees). Default is ’d’: degrees
Outputs:
- e, n, u: East, North, Up Cartesian coordinates (length units and dimensions same as slantrange).
Example:
[e, n, u] = aer2enu (33, 70, 1e3) e = 186.28 n = 286.84 u = 939.69
In radians
[e, n, u] = aer2enu (pi/4, pi/3,1e3, "radians") e = 353.55 n = 353.55 u = 866.03
