Which effect occurs when a waveguide's width narrows excessively?

A)Evanescent mode propagation increases
B)Reflected power diminishes gradually
C)Group velocity remains constant
D)Dielectric breakdown strength elevates

💡 Explanation

Evanescent mode limits waveguide transmission because when the gap narrows, the cutoff frequency is raised, preventing wave propagation; therefore, signal attenuation grows, rather than the other outcomes occurring under normal waveguide operation.
