dear all, i am trying to execute this code, but getting the error of "Error using vertcat Dimensions of matrices being concatenated are not consistent"... code is given below, please help me out.

%program code

% in this programe a highly scattered enviroment is considered. The % Capacity of a MIMO channel with nt transmit antenna and nr recieve % antenna is analyzed. The power in parallel channel (after % decomposition) is distributed as water-filling algorithm

% the pdf of the matrix lanada elements is depicted too.

clear all close all clc

nt_V = [1 2 3 2 4 5 6 7 8]; nr_V = [1 2 2 3 4 5 6 7 8];

N0 = 1e-4; B = 1; Iteration = 1e4; % must be grater than 1e2

SNR_V_db = [-10:3:20]; SNR_V = 10.^(SNR_V_db/10);

color = ['b';'r';'g';'k';'c';'p';'o','d','g']; notation = ['-o';'->';'<-';'-^';'-s';'@';'#';'$';'%'];

for(k = 1 : 9) nt = nt_V(k); nr = nr_V(k); for(i = 1 : length(SNR_V)) Pt = N0 * SNR_V(i); for(j = 1 : Iteration) H = random('rayleigh',1,nr,nt); [S, V, D] = svd(H); landas(:,j) = diag(V); [Capacity(i,j), PowerAllo] = WaterFilling_alg(Pt,landas(:,j),B,N0); end end

    f1 = figure(1);
    hold on
    plot(SNR_V_db,mean(Capacity'),notation(k,:),'color',color(k,:))

    f2 = figure(2);
    hold on
    [y,x] = hist(reshape(landas,[1,min(nt,nr)*Iteration]),100);
    plot(x,y/Iteration,'color',color(k,:));
    clear landas
end

f1 = figure(1);

legend_str = []; for( i = 1 : length(nt_V)) legend_str =[ legend_str ;... {['nt = ',num2str(nt_V(i)),' , nr = ',num2str(nr_V(i))]}]; end legend(legend_str) grid on set(f1,'color',[1 1 1]) xlabel('SNR in dB') ylabel('Capacity bits/s/Hz')

f2 = figure(2); legend(legend_str) grid on set(f2,'color',[1 1 1]) ylabel('pdf of elements in matrix landa in svd decomposition of marix H')

this is the code for self made function

function [Capacity PowerAllo] = WaterFilling_alg(PtotA,ChA,B,N0); % % WaterFilling in Optimising the Capacity %=============== % Initialization %=============== ChA = ChA + eps; NA = length(ChA); % the number of subchannels allocated to

H = ChA.^2/(B*N0); % the parameter relate to SNR in subchannels % assign the power to subchannel PowerAllo = (PtotA + sum(1./H))/NA - 1./H; while(length(find(PowerAllo < 0 ))>0) IndexN = find(PowerAllo <= 0 ); IndexP = find(PowerAllo > 0); MP = length(IndexP); PowerAllo(IndexN) = 0; ChAT = ChA(IndexP); HT = ChAT.^2/(B*N0); PowerAlloT = (PtotA + sum(1./HT))/MP - 1./HT; PowerAllo(IndexP) = PowerAlloT; end PowerAllo = PowerAllo.'; Capacity = sum(log2(1+ PowerAllo.' .* H));

The notation vector you have defined(notation = ['-o';'->';'<-';'-^';'-s';'@';'#';'$';'%'];) is the cause of the error. Each character is one size. The top five row has 2 characters. The sixth row and others have only one character. You have two choices. 1) Add a space to '@' (ie ' @') and others(6-9) inside the quotes. This is just tricking matlab to think that they all have same width. Better and modern way to do is to use cells. eg: notation = {'-o';'->';'<-';'-^';'-s';'@';'#';'$';'%'}; (Note the curly brackets. You can access them using cell2mat and indices. (eg: cell2mat(notation(4)) etc).

dbstop if error

type the above said command at the command prompt before running the script, it'll you to the part of code where exactly this error occurs. Also keep track of workspace to debug.

Answer 2

[Engineer afaque Manzoor soomro]

Mr. Sathish i followed your suggestion, That error has gone . however there is the run time error 'plot error'? will you please help me out?
