Which constraint rapidly limits millimeter wave signal range?

💡 Explanation

Severe signal attenuation occurs because **molecular absorption** causes millimeter waves to lose energy when interacting with water molecules in rain; therefore range decreases, rather than impedance mismatch or bandwidth issues, which are less directly impactful under normal rain conditions.
