Dear community
If there are two Uniform Rectangular Arrays (URA) located at 0 and 60 degrees, having a distance between them, and each one has multiple beams operating at the same frequency, if two beams intersect in space but do not intersect at the receiver, is there any effect for the interference or not?
Assuming receivers located in the far field.
with a lot of thanks.
The outcome of two beams intersecting at 60 degrees depends on the properties of the beams, the media they interact with, and the specific application. In any case, they can
In air the beams will not interact unless they are so high power as to cause arcing. They will form an interference pattern in space, which will be stationary if the two beams are coherent, but the two beams will pass through it unchanged.
In non-linear materials they will interact.
There will be side-lobes from both arrays that may point at the other array and that will mean they do pick up some of the other array's signal depending on the steering angle.
