METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR INDUCING A NON-FUNDAMENTAL WAVE MODE ON A TRANSMISSION MEDIUM |
摘要 |
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, a system for generating first electromagnetic waves and directing instances of the first electromagnetic waves to an interface of a transmission medium to induce propagation of second electromagnetic waves having at least a dominant non-fundamental wave mode. Other embodiments are disclosed. |

1. A method, comprising:
generating, by radiating elements of a plurality of circuits of a waveguide system, instances of first electromagnetic waves; and directing, by the waveguide system, the instances of the first electromagnetic waves to an interface of a transmission medium to induce propagation of a combined electromagnetic wave without utilizing an electrical return path, the combined electromagnetic wave having at least a dominant non-fundamental wave mode, and the combined electromagnetic wave having a non-optical operating frequency. |
