← TechnologyWhich outcome results when a radio receiver's Automatic Gain Control (AGC) fails to correctly utilize pulse width modulation during strong signal fading?
A)Increased frequency spectrum allocation errors
B)Compromised system noise floor integrity
C)Overload audio-output amplifier saturation✓
D)Reduced adjacent-channel interference resistance
💡 Explanation
AGC malfunction causes amplifier saturation, because insufficient gain reduction prevents compensation for excessively large input signals using pulse width modulation. Therefore, an overloaded output happens, rather than signal errors, due to uncorrected strong signals.
