Which mechanism causes increased interference when phased array antennas steer radiation?

💡 Explanation

Grating lobe formation causes increased interference as steering introduces path length differences which constructively interfere at unintended angles because the array spacing becomes comparable to the wavelength; therefore, sidelobe power increases rather than dissipating effectively.
