Can you please explain how the xz plane in the above-mentioned polar plot is created ? Based on my understanding, it is created by keeping phi=0 and phi = 180 constant in a 3D polar radiation plot and theta varying from 0 to 180 degrees. But, I would like to know if this angle is phi, how it can be used to plot both XZ planes and XY planes?
