It describes the limitations and challenges that arise when using sparse or "thinned" arrays, which consist of fewer elements than a full array configuration. While thinning an array can reduce costs, complexity, and physical size, it can also lead to several drawbacks, including: 1. **Loss of Array Gain**: A full array typically offers better performance in terms of gain.
