Which consequence results when a phased array antenna exhibits element displacement?

💡 Explanation

Element displacement in a phased array causes phase errors that disrupt constructive interference; this leads to beam pattern side lobe degradation because the intended beam shape is distorted, therefore the signal strength reduces away from intended target, rather than improving directionality.
