← TechnologyWhich error multiplication occurs when intersymbol interference corrupts signals?
A)Viterbi decoding path divergence✓
B)Adaptive equalization tap misconfiguration
C)Forward error correction limitations
D)Pulse shaping filter imperfections
💡 Explanation
The Viterbi decoder attempts to find the most likely transmitted sequence, but due to intersymbol interference its path diverges when incorrect decisions cascade early; this is because of error propagation, therefore error multiplication significantly increases rather than single isolated bit flips through incorrect pulse decoding.
