You’re welcome. Yes, the attenuation component attenuates the optical power entering it. So when the attenuation amount increases, the signal received at the receiver gets weaker. When this weakened signal is added with the receiver noise, the overall SNR becomes less than before. So the detected signal is more corrupted.
