In 5G planning example, i have this : "txElement = reflectorCrossedDipoleElement(fq);"....and It Works in live script, but why not when i use it in command window or my code?
Thank you for your answer,
PS: i use matlab r2021a

%%%%%you have to save this function file
function element = reflectorCrossedDipoleElement(fq, showAntenna)
%reflectorCrossedDipoleElement Design reflector-backed crossed dipole antenna element
if nargin < 2
showAntenna = false;
end
lambda = physconst("lightspeed")/fq;
offset = lambda/50;
gndspacing = lambda/4;
gndLength = lambda;
gndWidth = lambda;
% Design crossed dipole elements
d1 = design(dipole,fq);
d1.Tilt = [90,-45];
d1.TiltAxis = ["y","z"];
d2 = copy(d1);
d2.Tilt = 45;
d2.TiltAxis = "x";
% Design reflector
r = design(reflector,fq);
r.Exciter = d1;
r.GroundPlaneLength = gndLength;
r.GroundPlaneWidth = gndWidth;
r.Spacing = gndspacing;
r.Tilt = 90;
r.TiltAxis = "y";
if showAntenna
show(r)
end
% Form the crossed dipole backed by reflector
refarray = conformalArray;
refarray.ElementPosition(1,:) = [gndspacing 0 0];
refarray.ElementPosition(2,:) = [gndspacing+offset 0 0];
refarray.Element = {r, d2};
refarray.Reference = "feed";
refarray.PhaseShift = [0 90];
if showAntenna
show(refarray);
view(65,20)
end
% Create custom antenna element from pattern
[g,az,el] = pattern(refarray,fq);
element = phased.CustomAntennaElement;
element.AzimuthAngles = az;
element.ElevationAngles = el;
element.MagnitudePattern = g;
element.PhasePattern = zeros(size(g));
end
function element = reflectorDipoleElement(fq)
%reflectorDipoleElement Design reflector-backed dipole antenna element
% Design reflector and exciter, which is vertical dipole by default
element = design(reflector,fq);
element.Exciter = design(element.Exciter,fq);
% Tilt antenna element to radiate in xy-plane, with boresight along x-axis
element.Tilt = 90;
element.TiltAxis = "y";
element.Exciter.Tilt = 90;
element.Exciter.TiltAxis = "y";
