Which effect on a phased array antenna's beamwidth results when individual antenna element spacing increases significantly?

💡 Explanation

Grating lobes appear as the antenna element spacing increases significantly beyond half a wavelength because spatial aliasing introduces ambiguities during beamforming, therefore unwanted radiation peaks emerge, rather than only affecting sidelobe levels or gain.
