Which risk substantially increases when a phased array radar steers its beam too rapidly?

A)Grating lobe presence becomes prominent
B)Excessive intermodulation distortion grows
C)Harmonic generation causes receiver saturation
D)Transmitter power efficiency decreases sharply

💡 Explanation

Prominent grating lobes appear because the rapid beam steering asks for significant phase shifts between array elements, therefore energy radiates in unintended directions, rather than only decreasing efficiency or signal distortion, which are less pronounced.
