[Matlab] Replace pixels of an image with theta of Polar Coordinates

[physical101]

Dear Math and Physics fans

You have always been so helpful in the past and I was hoping that I could call on your expertise once again.

I want to make a wedge filter in MATLAB so I can determine the orientation of the ellipse of a centered 2D fft.

I tried to make an new image where each pixel coordinate corresponded to the angle from the center. I was then going to use a simple for loop to sum of the 2d fft values that were within the bounds of certain angles.

When I tried to make the image which contained the polar coordinates as pixel intensities I got some very odd results back. For instance, the image as a whole seems to be skewed by 45 degrees. If any of you guys have any experience with this could you have a look at my code and tell me where I might be going wrong?

%% do fft

S=fftshift(fft2(fftshift(double(img))));
S = 20*log10(abs(S));
S=medfilt2(S,[5 5]);

%% make image where pixel vals are angles in degrees

sx=size(S);
[x,y]=meshgrid(1:round(sx(2)/2),1:round(sx(1)/2));
[x2,y2]=meshgrid(1:round(sx(2)/2),1:round(sx(1)/2));
[x3,y3]=meshgrid(1:round(sx(2)/2),1:round(sx(1)/2));
[x4,y4]=meshgrid(1:round(sx(2)/2),1:round(sx(1)/2));
t=atan(x./y);
t2=atan(x2./y2);
t3=atan(x3./y3);
t4=atan(x4./y4);
t2=flipud(t2);
t3=fliplr(t3);
t3=flipud(t3);
t4=fliplr(t4);
t5=[t3,t2;t4,t];

tmp1=sin(2.*t5);
tmp2=cos(2.*t5);

ty=((tmp1)./(tmp2));
tr=ty/2;
tr=atan(tr);
tr=tr.*(180/pi);
tr(isnan(tr)==1)=90;


Any help would be really appreciated. Thanking you in advance

who knew this existed

[theta,rho] = cart2pol

sorry to be a pain cheers
