Default Single Element Antenna Performance

All,

If you were given a phased array of 30 elements, which provided a
formed beam of 3.1dB/K, and you were required to determine the dB/K of
a single element from that 30, how would you do it? Would it be
3.1-10*LOG10(30)?

Also, would the net combiner gain, including beamforming losses, plus
the single element dB/K be equal to the 3.1dB/K?

Thanks in advance.

Bobby.
