Which risk increases when quantization error is not properly mitigated during analog-to-digital signal processing in software-defined radio?

💡 Explanation

Increased quantization error raises the noise floor because it generates spurious signals spread across adjacent channels, increasing adjacent channel interference, therefore, leading to signal distortion in the radio, rather than limiting phase noise or improving dynamic range.
