← ScienceWhich mechanism inhibits radio signal propagation in urban environments with dense buildings?
A)Constructive interference from atmospheric ducts
B)Diffraction creating secondary signal sources
C)Signal attenuation through impedance matching
D)Multipath interference creating signal nulls✓
💡 Explanation
When radio waves encounter buildings, multipath interference occurs as signals reflect, refract, and diffract, creating multiple signal paths that constructively or destructively interfere at the receiver, leading to signal nulls. Therefore multipath interference results, rather than atmospheric ducts, impedance matching, or diffraction alone, which don't account for nulls.
