Which outcome occurs when thermal noise overcomes the coded signal in a satellite communication channel?

💡 Explanation

Increased bit error rate occurs because the thermal noise raises the noise floor, exceeding the signal's coded amplitude; therefore, erroneous bits are decoded, rather than a functional signal resulting due to the (signal-to-noise ratio) available.
