← TechnologyWhich challenge increases substantially in amplitude-modulated signals because of noise?
A)Poor envelope detector performance✓
B)Reduced carrier power efficiency
C)Distorted phase shift keying
D)Increased frequency division multiplexing
💡 Explanation
Reduced detector SNR arises due to the rectifier's increased sensitivity to noise at low signal levels; envelope distortion occurs because weak signals are more affected by additive noise, therefore the envelope is poorly reconstructed rather than PSK distortion or an inability to multiplex frequencies.
