Which outcome occurs when high-frequency transmission lines experience reflections?

💡 Explanation

Reflections on transmission lines cause standing waves because wave interference creates areas of high and low amplitude; therefore signal distortion results, rather than impedance correction or cancellation of reflections under mismatched conditions.
