← ScienceWhich consequence results when coherence decays in fiber optic communication?
A)Increased bit error rate emerges✓
B)Reduced core diameter improves signal
C)Wavelength stabilizes improving distance
D)Polarization shift eliminates modal dispersion
💡 Explanation
Increased bit error rates arise in fiber optics when coherence decays because of increased modal dispersion interfering destructively across modes; therefore lower signal-to-noise emerges, rather than wavelength stabilization which depends on the source's intrinsic properties.
