Which adverse outcome is likely when a phased array antenna designed for satellite communication experiences significant element gain variation?

💡 Explanation

Increased side lobe power results from element gain variation because the constructive and destructive interference patterns are disrupted by altered signal amplitudes due to non-uniform element gains. Therefore a lobe power increase is expected, rather than improved signal quality or temperature reduction.
