MATLAB: Evaluate a Hankel integral

Question

Hey folks,

I've been working on Hankel Function for a spherical electromagnetic field. However, I got a problem in solving a Hankel Function integral. See my code down below:

k = 2;

nu = 0;

syms x

f=@(x) (besselh(nu,k,x))*(e^(ix));

vpaintegral(f,x,0,pi/2)

Then, I got the following error: "Undefined function 'besselh' for input arguments of type 'sym'."

I appreciate any idea you might have.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Try this

k = 2;
nu = 0;
f=@(x) (besselh(nu,k,x)).*(exp(1i*x));
result = integral(f, 0, pi/2)
