← ScienceWhich risk arises when an antenna's size significantly deviates from optimal wavelength?
A)Increased reflected power at feedpoint✓
B)Reduced signal bandwidth capacity
C)Increased electromagnetic interference (EMI)
D)Elevation of substrate dielectric losses
💡 Explanation
A large size mismatch affects impedance matching, initiating excessive standing waves and consequently, substantially raising the reflected power via impedance mismatch because more energy is bounced rather than correctly emitted; therefore reflection increases rather than bandwidth reduction or EMI changes.
