← TechnologyWhich consequence results when the antenna's matching network fails?
A)Increased signal back reflection (VSWR)✓
B)Reduced receiver dynamic range
C)Lowered impedance in transmission lines
D)Decreased signal capture cross-section
💡 Explanation
Increased signal back reflection occurs, because impedance mismatch causes a portion of the transmitted power to be reflected back to the source due to impedance changes. Therefore the VSWR increases, rather than impedance decreasing in transmission lines.
