Which consequence results when a waveguide supports multiple modes?

💡 Explanation

Modal dispersion limits signal bandwidth because multiple modes travel at different speeds in the waveguide. This causes pulse spreading, therefore bandwidth is limited, rather than impedance improving or dielectric strength changing whose effects are orthogonal.
