Hi everybody
I'm trying to generate a field for a simulated dipole using the
command ft_dipolesimulation, for a MEG study.
I do the following:
-read the hdr
-import the sensor structure with the following lines
grad=hdr.grad;
radius = sqrt(sum(grad.chanpos.^2,2));
grad.chanpos = grad.chanpos./ [radius radius radius];
grad.label=hdr.label(1:306)';
-then I create the vol structure using the following code
vol = [];
vol.r = 12 * [0.88 0.92 1.00]; % radii of spheres, the head radius is 12 cm
vol.c = [1 1/80 1]; % conductivity
vol.o = [0 0 0];
At this point I have the grad structure, and the vol structure.
Then I give all the options for the dipole simulation with the code
%% create a dipole simulation with a custom timecourse
cfg = [];
cfg.vol = vol; % see above
cfg.grad = grad; % see above
cfg.dip.pos = [0 0.5 0.3];
cfg.dip.mom = [1 0 0]';
cfg.dip.frequency = 10; %Hz
cfg.ntrials = 10;
cfg.triallength = 20; % seconds
cfg.fsample = 250; % Hz
but when I try to esecute the line
raw1 = ft_dipolesimulation(cfg);
I find this error
??? Error using ==> ft_compute_leadfield at 301
unsupported volume conductor model for MEG
Error in ==> ft_dipolesimulation at 198
lf = ft_compute_leadfield(dippos{trial}, sens, vol);
I really cannot understand why volume conductor model is not supported.
Any suggestion? I'm pretty sure that the mistake is trivial, but I'm
not able to see it.
Thank you!
