Which consequence occurs when ionospheric disturbances disrupt satellite uplink?

💡 Explanation

Signal fading via scintillation results because random fluctuations in ionospheric electron density cause constructive and destructive interference. This is ionospheric scintillation, therefore signal strength fluctuates, rather than remaining stable, which would require constant electronic characteristics.
