← TechnologyWhich outcome occurs when antenna **aperture blockage** distorts the signal?
A)Increased bit error rate (BER)✓
B)Power consumption is greatly reduced
C)Bandwidth experiences significant expansion
D)Decreased signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)
💡 Explanation
Increased bit error rates occur because **constructive/destructive wave interference** distorts the original signal, thus making de-modulation challenging at the receiver. Resulting data errors rise sharply, therefore a higher BER occurs, rather than a consumption lessening or improved ratios.
