Which risk increases when a phased array antenna operates near maximal constructive interference steering?

A)Increased side lobe signal strength
B)Reduced impedance matching efficiency
C)Amplified atmospheric signal attenuation
D)Decreased effective isotropic radiation power

💡 Explanation

The increased side lobe signal strength results from grating lobe formation. Because maximal beam steering demands extreme phase adjustments, the antenna's element spacing facilitates grating lobes due to spatial aliasing, therefore amplifying the undesired signals, rather than reducing interference or enhancing EIRP.
