← TechnologyWhich consequence results when signal processing exceeds the Nyquist rate within a Software Defined Radio's (SDR) receiver?
A)Aliasing distorts the baseband signal✓
B)Harmonic distortion reduces SNR
C)Quantization noise increases logarithmically
D)Phase modulation induces jitter
💡 Explanation
When the Nyquist rate is exceeded signals alias spuriously because undersampling does not accurately capture signal changes, falsely creating lower frequencies. Therefore, aliasing distortions occur, rather than harmonic distortion or modulation issues at this core sampling stage.
