Well, generally speaking, the housing shape should create nil interference with transmitting/receiving. That's all.

A documentary about Type 052D :
The interesting thing about this one is that they revealed Type 346A radar has a range of 350 KM (@0:46)- although they didn't say against how large of the target they achieve this result.
Another thing they revealed is the PJ-38 130mm naval gun (@1:16) which has a rate of fire of 40 round/minute with a range of 29.5 km.

Plus I though that the U.S. and Japanese SPY-1D has a range of 1,000km against air targets.
I think that 350km is just a reference range for the public. The true range of that radar is a secret. Every military in the world does that. They give a number for public consumption but only the insiders know the true capabilities of a weapons system.

That's likely against something close to space or actually in orbit.
The SPY-1D would have to figure a way around the curvature of the Earth if it wanted to see, say, a H-6K running at 10km altitude 1,000km away.
*** Removed inappropriate making fun of Chinese ** with the 052C in that picture? Aren't all 6 already in service?
