Which risk increases when a phased array radar operates near 100% duty cycle?

💡 Explanation

Increased duty cycle in high power radar raises the average power dissipated, enhancing electron-phonon interactions. This causes the thermal runaway mechanism in amplifier semiconductors because heat cannot dissipate fast enough; therefore damage increases rather than precise beamforming under steady conditions.
