Which risk increases when a high-frequency signal propagates inside a dielectric-filled waveguide?

A)Uncontrolled harmonic oscillation occurs
B)Spurious mode excitation is amplified
C)Skin effect losses dominate
D)Dielectric breakdown risk escalates

💡 Explanation

Dielectric breakdown risk increases because *impact ionization* causes cumulative energy transfer to dielectric molecules. Therefore the electric field intensity increases rather than harmonic modes due to field confinement.
