Which consequence results when incorrect guard band spacing impacts orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing?

💡 Explanation

Insufficient guard band spacing causes inter-carrier interference (ICI) because overlapping subcarriers fail to maintain orthogonality. Therefore, data corruption increases, rather than reduced ICI, because spectral overlap becomes significant with a reduction in frequency separation.
