← TechnologyWhich digital signal outcome occurs when exceeding the Nyquist sampling rate's limit imposed on a Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) signal processing system?
A)Accurate signal amplitude recovery
B)Reduced quantization noise floor
C)Inter-symbol interference increases✓
D)Consistent spectral energy density
💡 Explanation
Inter-symbol interference (ISI) increases because exceeding the Nyquist limit creates overlapping symbols in the time domain, causing distortion. This degrades signal fidelity; therefore ISI will worsen, rather than improving amplitude recovery or noise characteristics, under this limiting condition.
