Which outcome arises when mismatched dielectric constants impede wave propagation?

💡 Explanation

Impedance mismatch means that not all incident power is transmitted; significant signal reflection and interference occur because the transmission line experiences standing waves due to wave reflection, therefore reduces the signal strength, rather than complete power delivery.
