← ScienceWhich mechanism causes communication loss when atmospheric conditions increase ionospheric plasma density?
A)Faraday rotation✓
B)Skin effect attenuation
C)Brewster angle reflection
D)Compton scattering reduction
💡 Explanation
Faraday rotation occurs because birefringent media rotates the polarization of radio waves propagating through magnetic fields; therefore, signal polarization no longer aligns with receiving antennas, rather than other refractive or loss effects.
