I would like to add a legend to every subplot as shown below

enter image description here

each legend is theta_(1/2)=5, theta_(1/2)= 10, theta_(1/2)=15,...,theta_(1/2)=60. How can I change the number for each legend?

Q = [16,32,64,128,256,512,1024];

VEC_Beam_5 = [113.2659   69.7204   51.8739   34.5033   21.6538   10.9459    5.9488];   % Coverage area of Theta = 5

cmap = jet(12);

for k1 = 1:12
    subplot(2,6,k1);
    plot(log2(Q),VEC_Beam(k1,:), 'Color', cmap(k1, :),'LineWidth',2, 'Marker','O');
    xticks(log2(Q))
    xticklabels(string(Q))
    xlabel('Q');
    ylabel('Coverage area');
    grid on;

Just alter your string within a loop. I suggest using sprintf() for clarity:

for ii = 1:12
    % your plot
    legend_str = sprintf('\\theta_(1/2) = %d\\circ', 5 * ii)
    legend(legend_str)
end

Thanks to Sardar Usama for the LaTeX corrections.

    Whilst your answer does resolve the actual problem, you may want to write: 1. \\theta instead of \theta as \theta is considered as \t, which is tab-space, + heta . 2. \\circ at the end of the sprintf string for the degree symbol.
