← ScienceWhich effect causes receiver desensitization when powerful electromagnetic waves saturate RFIDs?
A)Intermodulation distortion✓
B)Velocity saturation
C)Quantum tunneling
D)Dielectric breakdown
💡 Explanation
Intermodulation distortion creates spurious signals because the overloaded RFID receiver generates harmonics that interfere with nearby legitimate signals. Therefore, receiver sensitivity decreases due to self-interference, rather than alternatives like tunneling which have distinct mechanisms affecting conduction.
