Which signal degradation occurs when a waveguide bends sharply?

💡 Explanation

Increased radiation losses occur due to bending; the electromagnetic waves cannot fully follow the curve because mode conversion causes energy to radiate outwards. Therefore, energy loss increases, rather than capacitive or magnetic effects dominating.
