The lead sentence says:

"An array factor is a set of N identical antennas which face the same direction..."

If whoever wrote this totally erroneous stub had read the references which he himself had added, he would have found that the array factor is a mathematical factor A used to multiply the individual element's directivity function to get the array's directivity:

f_{\text{array}}(\theta ,\phi )=Af_{\text{element}}(\theta ,\phi )\,

If you don't know the subject, don't edit the article. --Chetvorno^TALK 07:20, 30 October 2016 (UTC)Reply
