interference/noise
I can't provide any references other than having stuck the term in a personal glossary of mine when I came across the word whilst doing a telephony translation way back when I was practically in short trousers. I've got it down as "noise on the line".
If this bagotement causes an error if it is reaches a significant level, then I would say interference is a distinct possibility in the context, n'est-ce pas?

BER = bit error rate (which you know), being the ratio of received bits that contain errors.
Interference = unwanted communication channel noise. Which would presumably cause transmitted bits to contain errors, and therefore push up the BER....
The MIC could be a media interface connector.

Comment: "Thank you, Charlie! Thank you also, Francis, for insight into the military connection. Not knowing the exact technology being described, I didn't feel comfortable using "movement", "fluctation" or "noise", though doubtless these could be right in certain contexts. So, "interference" it is for me in this case. I appreciate your help!"
