The loss of strength of a signal while propagating through a medium is called-
- A Amplification
- B Attenuation
- C Modulation
- D Demodulation
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Attenuation
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Attenuation refers to the reduction in signal strength or intensity as it travels through a communication channel. This happens because the signal's energy is absorbed or scattered by the medium it passes through. B) Attenuation.
