Based on the analysis of the optical phase-shifting networks noise characteristics and phased array antenna theory, the formulas are derived in this paper, with a description of the relationship between the figure of Relative Intensity Noise (RIN) of laser, fiber links insertion loss, laser average power, and the main lobe level as well as the side lobe level. The simulation and theoretical study show that, with the typical parameter in the optical phase-shifting network, the increase of the three parameters is able to lead to reduce the main lo
