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 substantially having a non-fundamental wave mode. Other embodiments are disclosed. |

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