What does the term "Receiving poorly" indicate in communication protocols?

"Receiving poorly" in communication protocols typically refers to a situation where the quality of the signal being received is low, which can negatively impact the clarity and transmission of the information being communicated. When signal strength is low, it often leads to issues such as distortion, lost data packets, or disruptions in the communication flow. This can subsequently result in misunderstandings, incomplete messages, or the requirement for retransmission.

High signal clarity implies the opposite of receiving poorly, as it indicates that the message being communicated can be easily understood and is transmitted effectively without interference. A message not understood could stem from poor signal reception but is not synonymous with "receiving poorly." Confirmation of a message received would suggest that communication was effective enough to acknowledge receipt, which isn't the case with low signal strength. Thus, the indication of receiving poorly aligns most accurately with low signal strength.
