Which risk increases greatly when a radar system emits sidelobe energy during propagation?

💡 Explanation

Energy propagated via sidelobes causes increased signal interference because the weaker, off-axis signals can be received elsewhere due to imperfect antenna directivity. Therefore effective target signals become indistinguishable from leaked emissions, rather than atmospheric scatter which wouldn't dominate.
