Which risk increases when multiple free-space laser transceivers lack mutual path-length coherence?

💡 Explanation

Significant beam pattern distortions increase because the optical signals incoherently interfere, leading to unpredictable intensity variations via destructive interference; therefore, speckle patterns arise, rather than uniform illumination, hindering signal fidelity which relies on constructive interference.
