Which outcome follows increased signal attenuation alongside fiber optic bends?

💡 Explanation

Increased bending causes greater loss of higher-order modes due to reduced total internal reflection. This prompts increased modal dispersion because higher-order modes are attenuated, distorting the signal, therefore increased dispersion, rather than reduced scattering or polarization effects.
