Which consequence results when atmospheric ducting elevates tropospheric signal propagation?

💡 Explanation

Atmospheric ducting enables signal propagation far beyond line-of-sight due to refraction, with signals bouncing between atmospheric layers via total internal reflection, therefore increasing signal interference with distant transmitters rather than reducing attenuation, which would occur in open space.
