← ScienceWhich interference effect decreases when coherence length reduces in fiber-optic communication?
A)Chromatic dispersion induced signal distortion
B)Modal noise induced signal degradation✓
C)Polarization mode dispersion reduction
D)Four-wave mixing induced channel disruption
💡 Explanation
A shorter coherence length increases modal noise because interference between guided modes becomes unstable and sensitive to perturbations. Therefore, modal noise induced signal degradation increases in fiber optical transmission, rather than other signal impairments under these conditions.
