← ScienceWhich outcome results when standing-wave impedance mismatch occurs within a microwave photonic system?
A)Increased stimulated Brillouin scattering
B)Reduced phase modulation efficiency✓
C)Elevated second-order harmonic distortion
D)Amplified chromatic dispersion penalty
💡 Explanation
Reduced phase modulation efficiency arises, because of signal reflection interfering with optimal superposition which constitutes the standing wave; the phase modulation effectiveness suffers rather than others therefore impedance mitigates optical standing waves.
