Which data loss risk increases when an adaptive antenna array experiences excessive inter-element coupling in a MIMO communication system?

💡 Explanation

Increased channel correlation occurs because excessive inter-element coupling within the antenna leads to a reduction in spatial diversity due to mutual inductance. Therefore, independent data streams become correlated rather than remaining isolated leading to data errors.
