Which consequence results when adaptive delta modulation's step size limits signal tracking?

💡 Explanation

Slope overload distortion increases rapidly because, during periods of fast signal change, the limited step size in "adaptive delta modulation" can't keep up; therefore, a large difference accumulates, creating severe distortion, rather than achieving fine granularity.
